Clangers

Still wading, plodding, labouring, dredging, dragging myself (but not padding, I wouldn't dare) through the essays.

But my little pencil friends help to cheer me up.

No rude comments please.

The 'lady' in blue looks in pain. I'd be too with a pencil up my bum.

Is it just you, James, who doesn't recognise them? or were you joking....?

No, they sadly don't squeak. They don't squeak sadly either.

I do have some soft ones which squeak. AND a fix-it mouse which sings. Maybe I should post a picture of them too, especially for Pod. See - if you thought it was just armadillos in our house, how wrong you were.

And I think they came from the £1 shop, a long, long time ago.......

I grew up in the U.S., so never saw the Clangers until a few weeks ago (thanks to YouTube). My husband spent several of his formative years in England and Scotland, so he has fond memories of the Clangers.

I have a double CD with the sound track from the Clangers, and also have 2 clangers living in my knicker drawer!

I did have a fridge magnet, but I think it was mortally wounded when we moved house.

Hi Sweetie

What wonderful creatures you have in your home = armadillos, clangers and mpre .......

I didn't read your weird things until this evening (because I thought I might get put off my stroke whilst trying to do mine). I really enjoyed reding them.

I'm hoping blogger will now allow me to comment on your blog once again now that I have tried to make my peace with Google.

Clangers? A bagpuss mouse? I have no idea what any of this means. Must be a British thing. Clearly I need to do some Internet research.
