Sinister: Re: Bagpuss is scary!

[Pete Ramsdale]

David -

How on earth could you find a harmless , saggy, old, cloth cat
scary....;-) All I used to think was "how in the blue blazes does that
girl make any money out of that shop?" Bloody good question if you ask
me. I mean - she didn't sell anything. Ever, in fact. She just gave it
back to the rightful owner. Personally, I think it must have been a
cover up operation for massive drug trafficking - imagine if you will:
person drops off a small plastic ship or a ballet shoe outside emily's
shop. Unbeknown to the general public and unsuspecting pre-pubescent
viewers, there's a huge wad of cash inside. Emily takes it into the
shop and Bagpuss and his mates get going. Madeleine the rag doll sings
a bit, Gabriel the toad does a wicked George Formby impression on the
ukel..uki...ukeliel...banjo, Professor Yaffel the carved wooden
bookend sits there going "Nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah" for a bit, and then
the mice on the mouse organ turn a bag full of butterbeans and
breadcrumbs into the finest coke this side of Lawrence Dallaglio's
hotel room (there you go, Nick, that's as close as I get). The
aformentioned class 'A' drug is then stuffed back into the ship/ballet
shoe, and shipped off back to the owner, straight under the nose of
Her Majesty's Customs and Excise. Foolproof.

Anyway, I'm off home. Maybe there'll be some proper B&S content
tomorrow. Sorry.....

lol p xx.

 Life is full of regrets, and I've had a few, as Frank Sinatra
 once sang, before hiccuping loudly and falling over sideways.
