There's something slightly disturbing about
a lady-mouse with bare-legs in tights or stockings! And what's happened to Mr.
Mouse's ears, is he trying to do a Micky
impersonation? That's Micky the
mouse, not Micky the Mrs. Hedgehog.
It's as if they never finished them?
Threading a needle and picking Edelweiss of
a cliff . . . they can be easier to find! Another worry is how many real
hedgehogs were used in the production of the studio hedgehog puppets; that
doesn't look like faux-fur to me! Indeed they are really gnomes with a
whole-hedgehog head-transplant!
I love the little appfelsaft glass, I have
many happy memories of stopping in these big roadside 'country-club'/beer
hall/restaurant things in the meadow-valleys of Bavaria or Wuttenberg and
having a large glass of ice-cold apple-juice; huge wooden chalets, with painted
murals and colourful window-boxes, tables out in the sun and being allowed to
say "Noch-mal" or "Eine-mal" and having the waitress
tick my beer-mat with her biro!
Meanwhile Macki and Mucki are about
to dive into a blank-monge! Funny; you give small black eyes to an alien in a
sci-fi movie = evil; give the same eyes to a stuffed hedgehog = cute!
Saving frogs was never more salient than
now, to be honest thought, that frog looks either dead and beyond help, or very
hung-over! While I'm not sure if he's planting something exotic in the
right-hand image, or cursing the spread of the dreaded wild-garlic to his
allotment?
The reverse of the cards; thanks Brian,
with these and Peter's group the other-day we have definitely 'informed, educated
or entertained' the audience about Mecki,
here at the Better Blogging Corporation!
