It's bugging me. Why does he sleep on a boat?

Why are the Tombliboos trousers always on the washing line? You never see them washing them. They must be proper filthy, but then they do live in a Hedge!!!

ooh- i just clicked on that, and it linked to In the night Kitchen- i loved that book when i was a kid potty americans found it controversial cos Mickey is always nekkid!!

What has always bugged me is what happens when it rains??

The grass in ITNG is nice and green which suggests there must be rain at some point

Where do Upsy Daisy and Iggle Piggle sleep then??

EyeballsintheSky · 10/11/2008 19:22

They snuggle up in Upsy Daisy's bed of course!

DD adores it. I put it on the catch up for her and she crawls over to the tv like the clappers. She has to have Igglepiggle and Mr Pontipine with her so she can wave them and hold them up to the tv.

She also loves the dancing cbeebies blobs before it starts.

Noooooooooooo - only Upsy Daisy sleeps in Upsy Daisy's bed!

And don't knock the HaaHoos - apparently I am a HaaHoo. According to DD2, she is IgglePiggle, DD1 is UpsyDaisy, DD3 is a Pontipine, DH is MakkaPakka and I am a HaaHoo. I agreed to this as long as I could be the purple one with yellow flowers

isn't he dreaming?

and then on his choice of transport he meets his friends in his dream?

i don't go to sleep in my dreams!

Lembit Opik looks like Spooky Spoon, surely.

roffle
this thread is fab.

oh we are such sensible people on mn

I reckon he sleeps in a boat cos he needs to get away from the Haaa-Hooooooooooooooooos. They snore ever so loudly y'know.
Anyway, where d'ya want him to sleep - Upsy Daisy's bed? Makka Pakka's cave

Poledra · 17/11/2008 11:02

I do not snore

i hate in the night kitchen - ds1 now wants cake and only cake for breakfast....

we reckon that makka pakka is a small toddler and iggle piggle are about 3 years old (well represent that) so that's why they are so different in size

ds1 has luckily gone off it as he was seriously addicted for a while

we also used to tell ds1 that all the things that happened in the night garden were while he was sleeping and when iggle piggle goes off in the boat at the end that's when he goes to sleep so ds1 can wake up

sad eh?? it was when ds1 didn't want to go to sleep...
