I can't spell after a few drinkys but what the hey?!
Just thinking about kids programmes and wondered what everyone's favourites were when they were a kid and which one do you secretly love now?
I used to love the Clangers (and still do!) but now find myself tuning into Spongebob Squarepants
Go on you know you want to tell all!!

OK Sparkler see if you can find out if I'm mad or not.
I remember a cartoon in the early 80's similar to Power Rangers but they had cats which all connected to become a large cat. No one I know in RL believes me!!

SackAche - I saw Glenn Michael live too - with Palladin!!! Got his autograph at Glasgow Zoo for some reason....

Was always desperate to get on the Untied Shoelace Show with Tiger Tim, but my mum said it was for rough girls with pierced ears so I was deprived

SPARKLER1 · 30/12/2005 22:33

Spursmum - I don't know who is more mad - me or you. I've been hunting the internet for you to find out with no success!!

Just remembered another programme I used to love - Crackerjack. Oooooooooooh I could crush a grape!
