to be envious of Flop's furniture? (light-hearted)

Exactly that really... Whenever we watch Bing Bunny I have serious furniture envy! His house just seems so stylish and retro chic. I want to live there without that naughty fucker Bing obviously have you ever lusted over a fictional house?

I totally agree with you. I love the style plus he has definitely kondoed successfully - a place for everything!

WaccaWacca · 04/03/2016 18:52

I covet Flop's sofa. And Brenda the Blender, mine is on its last legs.

amysmummy12345 · 04/03/2016 18:56

Haha Flop will be bringing out a coffee table style book "Kondo with Flop" Grin I'm hoping that subconsciously DH will become more Flop-esque with time... He's such a switched on care giver Smile

I do a mean Flop impression. DD gets me to do it all the time. At first, I thought it was because she was impressed. Now I'm wondering if she'd just prefer to live with Flop.

Yes! I want to live in Flop's house with the sort of mid-century chic.

I'd be having rabbit stew for dinner though.

Scoopmuckdizzy · 04/03/2016 19:10

DS1 calls me Flop. I think he'd rather the actual Flop look after him. Flop is very reasonable.

MyNameIsSuz · 04/03/2016 19:11

Yes! I'm always very jealous of their house.

MyNameIsSuz · 04/03/2016 19:11

Wouldn't want to have to live there with Bing or Flop though

amysmummy12345 · 04/03/2016 19:13

Indeed scoop Grin

Kondo with Flop! Grin

I love Flop. I was thrilled he won his Oscar (obviously that was what they were rally recognising).

mogloveseggs · 04/03/2016 20:15

Oh gosh yes! Yanbu! Spacious, light, lots of storage. No lego scattered. And where can I buy a soggy froggy? I need one in my life Grin

jimpam · 04/03/2016 20:21

I would love to live in flop's house. He is also my parenting idol- bing does stupid shit all day long & flop is unfailingly patient & quick to turn it into an important teaching moment. No raised voices or breadstick bribery from him.

Swannykazoo · 04/03/2016 20:26

Personally I can't believe no one is lusting after Sula's carer's amazing upside down house in the middle of the park. Sod the furniture. (Though I do covet a soggy froggy dishcloth)

Swannykazoo · 04/03/2016 20:27

Cross posted with mog. There must be soggyfroggies out there!

Stanky · 04/03/2016 20:28

I used to get annoyed at how nice their house was when ds used to watch Bing. Their kitchen and bathroom are massive, and the whole house is just so under control. Ours is a tiny, out of control shit tip, and every cupboard, appliance and tap requires a knack to get it to work properly. I want to move to Flop ' s house. Sula's is lovely too. They live in the middle of the park!

mogloveseggs · 04/03/2016 20:30

Swanny if you ever find one let me know please Grin
Oh yes Amma's house is amazing too!

Griphook · 04/03/2016 20:35

Why does Pando take his shorts off at the beginning? Really puzzles me

amysmummy12345 · 04/03/2016 20:51

We speculate in each episode as to how long Pando will keep his shorts on Grin

Even when Bing smashed Flop's phone, Flop was a sea of calm... I'd have been sobbing Shock

The phone smashing thing would have got me too, and the one where he hides sula's shoes in the toilet. The only problem with flop's house would be living next to pando, I think he is a total pain, not to mention the y fronts thing.

SansaClegane · 04/03/2016 21:24

I've honestly been googling for a "growly bin" after the phone smashing episode; something like that would be so fab! I'll take a soggy froggy too Grin
The furniture in the show is pretty closely modelled on the original books - I do love the style.
