I have always liked soft toys, as much now as when I was 5.

Littletune, if you type "The Magic Roundabout" into you tube, you will see both Dougs, otherwise known as Dougal and Hinty, otherwise known as Brian.

Alexander Meerkat is from a rather amusing advert for comparethemarket.com

I also have Basil Brush, Mutley, Ermintrude, Florence and a 45 year old teddy called Nostich.

Of course I will.

Just packing my bags now so I can get away early in the morning.

Hinty is so excited.

Does Dougs really have his arm around Hinty, or is that just an optical illusion?!

Yes, it does look like it.

Dougs only has long ears though. No arms.

Hey littletune!

I think you can make a facebook if you say you're 13.

It's really funny how Thalbergmad shot photos of a stuffed animal snail and created a thread just to mock Alistair Hinton  .

 :) Thank you Birba for not forgetting me!!!  :) I often remember all the great people from Pianostreet too and all the good times we had! :P It's just that the last two years were kind of weird for me...  :-\ I actually haven't even looked at pianostreet for all this time, but today (in the middle of the night) I just felt I really needed to see what was going on  :P Hope you're doing great! :)

Hi Ian! :) Thank you very much! Yes my life has been kind of complicated.... so I was also practicing piano a lot less, because I had to give it away (because of the neighbors) - I gave it to my music school. We've also been having money problems, so I couldn't go to music school for a little while... and other complicated things. But hopefully things get better!  :) It's nice to be here again!  8)
