(I'm) my DD is watching pats special delivery service, and he seems to continuously loose/misplace all the things he is supposed to deliver. AIBU to think he isnt that good at his job?

Planning permission clearly isn't needed in Sunflower Valley. Bob was designing his dream house this week as he went along!

I can understand the reluctance to talk about Dorothy if she left Alf in dodgy circumstances (perhaps that's where George went) but Miss Hubbard too? Where did they all go?

You do know that royal mail didn't want to be associated with Postman Pat - hence why its all special delivery service ....

YANBU I think the same a lot whilst my 3 and 4 year old watch it agog. I think they'd be no story line or excitement if he just delivered the mail though.

I prefer the old ones, boring I suppose but thinking back to the chap who wrote them John Cunliffe, he also did the series called Rosie and Jim and went about writing a story on the old ragdoll canal boat whilst his rag dolls came to life behind his back. My kids watch an old video of it and love it! So dull is good it seems Wink

Thomas is a terrible engine. Most of the bad things that happen in Sodor are because Thomas is being a little shit jealous of someone because they've got a better job or more attention or something. That fight with the diesels ended in carnage.

Lol how funny - I have all this to look forward to in years to come with a 2 year old and a 1 year old :)

I watched SDS for the first time the other week (with DS, I'm not quite that sad yet) and they got the helicopter out to deliver a parcel then too. Honestly, its no bloody surprise the cost of stamps has gone up if they have to factor Pat's spending into it.

Apologies for reanimating a zombie thread, but I feel this topic deserves further discussion.

Many of the pp from 2012 are probably out of the Postman Pat years now and there must be a whole new batch of parents who share my rage at the uselessness of Pat. Using the helicopter to deliver ice skates, FFS.

We've been watching the original ones on YouTube. Dc don't seem to mind.

My worry is, surely Pat is doomed? How can he survive in this age of austerity?

And what has happened to Peter Fogg? And Miss Hubbard? I assume Granny Dryden is no more, since she was very elderly in the 80s. Same goes for the Reverend Tims

I have a little crush on Peter Foggy. AIBU?
