to think Denis the Menace should not be tweeting

[twistedtoffee]

Just been looking at one of the kids' Beanos and Denis the Menace and his mates are tweeting each other. . Surely this is so wrong. Denis the Menace belongs to an era of blackboards, and leaky fountain pens and catapults and marbles.
What next? The Famous Five on facebook? The Chalet School girls skyping their parents every week?

I remember the uproar when Dennis The Menace wore a shellsuit, never mind doing all this new fangled tweeting malarky. Ridiculous, he should be of making a catapult or something.

Do not go near the new famous five books, kim. If it's the set I've seen in WHSmith, any way.

YANBU. He should be out playing conkers at this time of year.

I knew the Famous Five books were being updated re language eg galoshes becoming wellies, tinkers becoming travellers and 'Mother and Father' becoming 'Mum and Dad' .

Please don't tell me they are also going to start introducing burgers and pizza instead of hard boiled eggs and ham sandwiches; or have them tearing around on flickers instead of bicycles .

Apparently they're updating Malory Towers as well. It's going to be called Malory Comp. Darrell gets up to no good behind the bike shed and Alicia is in trouble for cyber bullying Gwendoline. Meanwhile, Sally gets sent home for turning up with pink hair and a lip stud and photos of Mamzelle in her underwear end up on You Tube.
