    I havent got a smart phone, put a report on here, or recommend which episode of the magic roundabout represents it best.

    The report will be easy but comparing to a particular episode of The Magic Roundabout will be slightly more time consuming as there are 441 episodes in total,I wonder if Florence is a virgin?

    Oh well here we go…

    Series 1,episode 1

    Careful, you will get into trouble with griff, Florence was below age. You will have to watch the game before having an opinion. The report will be more about a disaster, so how about suggesting a ww2 battle.

    Was it like the blitz, kursk, Stalingrad, the battle of britain, the africa campaign, or the battle for Berlin.

    Im sure it will be like the battle for Berlin, that Wisbech, or in this case the germans wer obliterated.

    You obviously don’t remember Jasper Carrots brilliant B side to Funky Moped then Frank with his own personal episode of Magic Roundabout? I bet that it’s on YouTube

    Im not a brummie, i grew up in Gwydir street, i got to brum in 1979. Many things happened, grew up, became a success in many fields, it was good to me.

    I’ve had never heard of Gwydir Street so I Googled it and it’s a very interesting place thst full of history Frank,it’s even got a house that’s a museum which I suspect has a blue plaque outside in homage to you being born there,whst made you go to Birmingham,why not head slightly further on to the beautiful East Midlands?

    Very funny, if my memory serves Carrott made it in the USA, that takes some doing. For a long while he was genuinely funny, then not so much then dissapeared, i think he got to his limits, you cant keep repeating yourself, i think he became a director at Birmingham City for a while.

    It was Dougal that i found very funny, that in later episodes the cartoonist gave him expressions that were hilarious, and in the BBC style the anarchic left, someone had to be a druggy, Dylan. It features in most BBC stuff, episodes of Dr Who were filmed like someone was high.

    All good family stuff. As for wandering around, i have a vagabond gene, even now in idle moments i plan a next move, i have to remind myself im home, and havent got time to move again, because in the time it takes im on the brink of checking out.

    Some of it is a search for something that doesnt exist, a better place than this one. Gwydir street in the 1960s was wonderful, a proper childhood, not like today. I know someone who hasnt moved from here, shes 37, still knows and sees old school friends, hasnt got a car, lived her life in one spot.

    Mind blowing to me. How about you, griff has moved around, im dissapointed that his life in London did not turn him into a suvverner, hes still a pro norverner.
