and child snoring in background is taken as a yes.

That's a nice thing, I like the idea of reading with my girls when they're a bit older, and have certain books from my childhood which I want to read with them (Vera Pratt and the Bishop's false teeth is high on the list). But the wife seems to have taken monopoly on reading time.

Ratatouille. It's an amazing film.

[Earl Aelfheah]

Monsters inc and Monsters University are good, and the Wonder woman theme music.

[Earl Aelfheah]

Skateboarding

[red devil]

Scooby Doo...but on the flip side I really, really, hate Scrappy Doo

[Earl Aelfheah]

Yeah, Mystery Incorporated is brilliant and makes several wry nods to the mistake that was Scrappy.

[Jeremy]

Cookie Monster is good.. I like The Count from Sesame Street too. I even find myself laughing at the dad in Peppa Pig sometimes.

[FJDGoose]

The clangers :)

[Earl Aelfheah]

Daddy Pig is gold

[Otta]

Daddy Pig is awesome. "You must become one with the puddle". I also like Miss Rabbit (not to be confused with mummy rabbit) and Mr Bull. Although fortunately we're now mostly over the whole Peppa phase with both kids.

Most of the time if I watch something I loved as a kid I find it's aged badly or just isn't very good.

Princess Bride is still as good and brilliant as it ever was. If it wasn't for the opening scene where Fred Savage is playing a baseball video game on an old 8 bit system (NES?), the film would be truly timeless.

[indiepanda]

Some classic children books like Anne of Green Gables. Oh and Harry Potter of course.

Pixar films. The Paddington film that was out this year was hilarious.

I don't even have the excuse of having kids to read / watch them with.

My sister made me bring my kids to see Paddington with her because she wanted to see it.

Battling Tops for me. Best game ever.

Got a mate coming over for beers on Friday night and before heading out to play pool we're facing-off across the blue rink...

Paddington?

In my day it was Mary Plain. Also a bear, if memory serves.

Since having it read to me (and the rest of the class) aged seven by the wicked (in the old sense) Mrs Edge, I have no desire ever to hear any Mary Plain ever again :(

Or At The Back of the North bloody Wind.

Hmmm. I've just googled Mary Plain.

"Mary Plain and her bear family feature in the stories, but the main characters are Mary and her human friend, the Owl Man. (The name refers to his spectacles.) He is kind and indulgent to Mary. He often takes her on outings."

Is that a euphemism?
