Are brother and sister!
I honestly thought that Charlie was a girl. My eldest isn't in to it and therefor its not watched in our house, but this morning it was on.
I know, that Charlie is spelt the boys way, but his hair his all girly! Get him a haircut!

Yes, I know this thread is very sad. And yes, I do have more to do than post threads about kiddies t.v, but hey! Its much easier to sit here and do this rather than housework!

Charlie!
Lola?
I am finding myself hankering for a brother like charlie
notwithstanding that they don't exist....

This thread has reminded me (if the tously mop of curls didn't!) that DS1 needs his hair cut...

Vala · 17/02/2006 16:18

Mumatuks ? I know how you feel ? I did something very similar the other day ?
I only just realised that Soren Lorenson was a boy ? apparently I?m the only one-

I guess I never thought about the name being boyish ? can?t say I have ever heard of ANYONE in RL named Soren.
I fell in to gender trap I guess ? Lola has imaginary friend ? Lola- girl IF ? girl blah blah.

BAGH - Bl**dy links -

Ok - not funny now

Shame

SorenLorensen · 17/02/2006 16:28

You got there in the end, Vala

Vala · 17/02/2006 16:31

Yeah ? easy when you take out the spaces!!!

I don?t do this Window stuff ? I?m a Unixer by trade ? normally get the slash the wrong way round ? spaces don?t matter with Unix either?.. blame tools ? I know

I knew Charlie was a boy - because his hair is the same as ds.
And Lola is very much like dd.
Just wish ds was as calm and resonable with dd as C is with L...

Nixz · 17/02/2006 16:54

my dd is convinved that charlie is a boy, she is charlie and lola maaaaaad....actually we all are in this house
I knew he was a boy of course!
Cos his best mate is Marv, and they do 'boy' things

Mumatuks · 17/02/2006 17:02

Teehee... I really didn't think this would get so many replies!

In my defence of thinking Charlie was a girl (short for Charlotte of course!) I did say its not on in this house as DS isn't in to it. (we're on the Bob, Thomas and Postman Pat stage)

He's a boy because... HE LOOKS LIKE A BOY!!!!!

Mercy · 17/02/2006 17:04

I think Soren is a Danish name.

£9.99 in Woolies too

Mumatuks · 17/02/2006 17:07

£9.99 on amazon too (but you'll have to buy something else to bump you up to free postage - £15)

cupcakes · 17/02/2006 17:08

sorry, I don't usually shout. Maybe I'll try bold next time.

Vala · 17/02/2006 17:15

I our house C&L is a blessed relief from Dora the Bl**dy explorer!!!
Swiper no swiping ? oh maaannnn ? wish he?d come and swipe the damned DVD - I rue the day I ever bought it..
Always seems to make DS very naughty afterwards for some reason too.
Until I got C&L it was ?I want Dora? - all the time. He would watch it over and over and over again and still go berserk when I switched it off.
Beginning to wonder if it?s a colour overload thing??

Nixz · 17/02/2006 17:28

DVD is £9.97 in Asda

Twiglett · 17/02/2006 17:29

Charlie is obviously a boy

but Charlie & Lola books are crap IMO

I like sorenlorenson though [girn]

harpsichordcarrier · 17/02/2006 17:30

a blasphemer!
A Lauren Child disbeliever!
burn her burn her!

Mercy · 17/02/2006 17:38

For Charlie and Lola fans

cupcakes · 17/02/2006 17:38

Got the I honestly can look after your dog C+L book for dd for her birthday. And it is a bit of a pain to read aloud.
