to worry that Miss Rabbit is overworked?

What with managing the recycling centre, working at the dentist, helping out at the library and taking people on balloon rides for starters, I just don't know how she does it..

AIBU to think the poor woman deserves a holiday?

I agree JackB - Dr Brown is v. worrying - he seems especially keen to give medicine out after just a couple of coughs.... (that episode causes me no end of trouble as dd1 decides that she has 'the coughs' after anyone coughs around her )

Def... Miss Rabbitt for webchat!!!

I have also thought that Miss Rabbit is rather overworked,
as for her relatives.....
in the episode where they go to the museum to see the exhibit about the moon a certain Mr Rabbit works there and he has a Welsh accent so I don't think he is her brother, but if he is her husband, why is she 'Miss'

I think about these things far too much, I definitely need more adult company

perhaps Miss Rabbit is married to Mr Rabbit, but being such an independent kinda gal, she doesn't want to be known as Mrs.

But then, shouldn't she be Ms Rabbit?

MissRabbitLive · 07/01/2010 20:46

Cooee!

gemmiegoatlegs · 07/01/2010 20:47

according to wikipedia, she is the spouse of Mr Rabbit, and the mother of Richard and Rebecca

No Mr R works with D Pig, doesn't he?

Wonder what multi-tasking Mss R would think of the fight MN is currently in. She'd kick Garry's ass for sure.

who does the voice for Miss Rabbit - anyone know? Tis bugging me and I can't be bothered to put the dvd on and check..

It's not an actress, it's someone from the animation company, they just thought her voice fitted. And now she does the one in Ben and Holly too.

miss rabbit on FB

shocking.

(applauds webchat)

MogTheForgetfulCat · 07/01/2010 21:56

Definitely NBU - she is so overworked she is surely heading for a nervous breakdown. And even then she'd probably have to be her own psychiatric nurse...

Think she should stick to the shoe shop - mmm, shoes. That or selling ice-cream, although possibly seasonal only.

kettlechip · 07/01/2010 21:58

webchat fab. Well done Miss Rabbit whoever you are!!

you don't want to know what I thought this thread was about

kettlechip · 07/01/2010 22:00

ninah, you wouldn't be the first...!!

Miss Rabbit should either be touted as a govt success as a back to work mother. I am so confused as should I think of her a bit of a flake who can't hold down a job, or a brilliant single mother providing for her bunnies?
Am thinking more along the lines of office bike though!

PureAsTheColdDrivenSnow · 07/01/2010 22:02

Apparently miss rabbit and mummy rabbit are two different people

chickbean · 07/01/2010 22:03

I thought there was a Mrs Rabbit too - oh no, will have to watch it again.

Can I also ask why George is the only child to not have an alliterative name?

Divatheshopaholic · 07/01/2010 22:07

My daughter 4.5 said " Mummy Rebecca and Richard got loads of sisters"

kettlechip · 07/01/2010 22:08

And to just be George, not George pig? (which admittedly sounds rubbish)

OP posts:
PureAsTheColdDrivenSnow · 07/01/2010 22:43

Diva, that makes the most sense!

EmilyStrange · 07/01/2010 22:50

Oh brilliant OP, my dd and I discuss this subject every day when we have to watch peppa for the thousandth time with the youngest. We have competitions to guess what job she will be doing next.

My dh and I also applaud daddy and mummy pig who seem to so easily distract George when he cries. We think they should set up a programme in direct competition with supernanny.

And yes we are as sad as we sound... we have no life whatsoever.

PureAsTheColdDrivenSnow · 07/01/2010 22:55

Emily (nice name) I agree! I do like Mummy and Daddy Pig's style of parenting, and I will happily admit to using their tactics recently!

aintnomountainhighenough · 07/01/2010 23:03

What a relief. I thought it was only DD and I who had noticed and worried how over worked Miss Rabbit is.

I bet she even gets to work in the snow

Schwabing · 07/01/2010 23:04

I love Mrs Rabbit, DH says she's a feminist icon
