Come on ladies the worst has to be 'Katy's song' from I Can Cook. I don't mean the slippy dippy soap song, you know, that awful thing she does with the guitar when summarising the recipe, ie "tear up some chicken, pop it in a pot, splash some milk, add a bit of pepper". Total nonsense. Doesn't rhyme, doesn't sound good and that grin...

Katy isn't lovely, she's strangely sexless. Like Ceri. I don't know how the BBC do it but their presenters are all entirely nothing. Which maybe what you want from kids presenters I suppose.

(Apart from Sid I suppose, he's got something about him. Must be cos he's a Camberwell boy)

The spring time song was best, with the little boys in their tuxedos. You had to love it my daughter did. She learn't how to sing happy birthday to you last week from the little card showing section thingy'm'jig! Just in time for Nanas birthday this weekend. Now I will have to get a card to them in time for her 2nd birthday in February (hers not Nanas ha!)


Come Outside brings back memories, I used to love it myself when I was little.


Daughter loves;

Waybuloo - she now tries to do yoga whilst watching, rather cute really

Timmy Time - keeps her giggly and shouting all through breakfast

Night Garden - tears after dinner if she misses it

Chuggington - she even sings the song now, chuggy chugga chugga


3rd and bird is lovely, if I might say so myself. Not that I watch it myself..

"My hubby has a very big soft spot for that blonde girl who was in Higgle de Piggledy House"


aaah, the lovely Ms Honeywell. Can people stop bringing up lovely kids tv presenters please, I'm trying to get some work done.

*drifts off into daydreams, Emma Forbes .....sigh*

Oh, yes, Numberjacks has frightened my son since he was wee - the Teacher used to have him in floods, and now he is three he is still scared of those Number Takers but loves watching it anyway from behind his hands, bless him.


Can't imagine anyone fancying Mr Tumble, but I do rather admire his performing skills. He does make me laugh.


The other programme I can't bear is that one based on a farm where the real animals are sort of animated so they talk. It seemed instructive enough on first viewing, but it's awful. The narrator has such a naff voice and the stories are boring. And what about that young bloke who dances on Boogey Beebies? Where did they find him? What a plonker!


God I watch too much CBeebies.

    • Hello. Would you like a sofa bed? We have one to give away…photos attached. The scatter cushions are not included.
    • Complaint submitted.  Your helpful link took me straight to the relevant page. 🙏
    • I spend a riddiculous amount of time at the PO.  Every day.  I watch and I watch closely.  Returns take seconds.  The wait might be long but the scan takes a second.  The only thing that slows down a return is people scrolling through their phones looking for QR codes. Business customers like me take seconds.  I might have up to 2 bags of boxes but every one is perfectly packaged and pre-paid.  It just needs a scan.  Seconds. For customers like me and for returns customers they could just put in a self-service check out and we would all be in and out in minutes.  Quicker than M&S.   Or, have a dedicated window for scanning and nothing else.  No facility to handle money at that window so nobody is tempted to ask for a service other than scanning.  That would get the queues down instantly. It is the people picking up things that backs up the queue.  The branch is not equipped to provide the service.  Next time you're in the branch take a look at the shelf space immediately behind the servers.  A few stacking shelves.  That's all the space they have.  Everything else is on the floor in a mess.  I take on board what someone said about the private delivery companies not delivering to Peckham and I didn't know that.   The biggest time wasting service of all is Parcelforce.  If someone in front of me asks for Parcelforce I want to cry.  Long, long, forms need to be filled out by hand, in triplicate.  It is Dickensian.   Please consider taking a few minutes to fill out an online complaint (link below).  I honestly believe that an influx of complaints might make a difference.  I don't want to demoralise the staff or anything sinister but the PO needs to see that the branch is broken. https://www.postoffice.co.uk/contact-us/in-branch-customer-experience    
    • Couldn't agree more with the frustration. I avoid it like the plague but made the mistake of picking up a parcel a couple of months ago and it took them 20 minutes to find it. This was after queuing for an hour. All the pickup parcels were just in a massive heap with no order or organisation so they manually had to search for everything. Bizarre and deeply annoying as if run well it could be a good asset to the Post Office and of course the community. Also, very much agree with the point re not taking it out on counter staff as it must be a terrible and demoralising environment to work in.
