Had A Bad Day?

Then you're not alone.

I found this article from Byrdie about what to do on a frustrating day like this, and some of the article's techniques actually worked for me. And trust me, it's not a clickbait piece, it's a real article.

Friendship Diary - I Feel Sick

- Guys, I feel so dizzy and sick. And my throat feels like someone forced me to swallow sandpaper.

- TIN TIN: Oh, poor baby.

- LADY PENELOPE: I understand too - my little one's so sick.

- ALAN: Look at her eyes - they're so tired they could clap shut in seconds.

- Well, guys, I had this weird dream last night. I was looking at a dictionary of weird words, then Luke, Resus and Cleo came along and warned me about the future of kids' TV - it will fall to ruins if they don't get the help they need. And they only died about four months ago.

- ALAN: We miss them so much, too. In fact it's been years since us puppet Tracys were really off the air, so love is all you need right now.

- TIN TIN: You read that Tired Ninja book, hmmm?

- Yeah.

- TIN TIN: Well, he said what you need is plenty of rest, to eat healthy, to dump all those little ideas of your's into a sparkly little journal, and to spend few minutes before bed brushing your teeth, dumping your ideas into a journal or to do list, and little light reads.

- Mmmmmm. Little light reads.

- ALAN: Aaaaawww. Look, she's falling asleep already. Her eyes and legs are so tired.

- TIN TIN: That's what connects our bodies all together, Alan.

- BRAINS: Did I...er...miss something?

- ALAN: Feel free to join the cuddle too.

Friend Of The Day: Brum

Feeling better takes time and effort - or at least, that's what some people think. Not when he's around.

When you see Brum as depicted in the '90s, he's the sort of guy you would like to air on your telly when you feel sick. His delusionally childish nature and curiosity makes him a geezer in a 3 year old's body, which makes him a good friend to have around when you're tired. His jokes, songs and stories will entertain you and make you happy in no time.

Friend Of The Day: Yung Star

Sure, donating and throwing away may be as boring as ever, but who needs to tidy things when you have this ugly chap to help you? This is Yung Star, the son of the creepy hagface known as Zelda. Think of him as someone who'll be your right hand man.

Something Children's Ward Didn't Teach You...

Ladies and gentlemen and hospital ward patients,

Throughout CITV's classic kids' show Children's Ward you saw copyrighted cartoon characters on the walls of the ward - examples include Mickey Mouse, Thomas The Tank Engine and Yogi Bear.

Here, Adam will explain to you Children's Ward fans how copyright destroys our lives forever.

Take it away, my dear friend.

Much Ado About Eye Strain

Hi! I'm Pikachu! Now that I've been owned by Ant, Dec and Cat after CBBC destroyed my show through reruns, I know now how eye strain is very bad for when you've been on the computer and the telly for too long. My friend has suffered this for so long - no wonder she needs her eyes tested about next week.

Luckily, Ant's wife Cat and Dec's wife Sabrina (alongside Salem, mustn't forget) have given me these tips to show you about what to do if you ever encounter eye strain. You'll thank me later, I promise!

Friend Of The Day - Venus

If your day has been totally POO PANTS and you've been confronted with eye strain, endless glitching and adverts on ITVX, Venus is the one to turn to. She's got the skill to choose which glasses you want from the opticians - and thus, give you loads of love in the process.

Brains' Brothers

Amidst the hectic, high stakes lives of the Tracy brothers, Brains has a different life in his mind: his life with some different brothers. His true brothers. Wolves. Look inside Brains' world of safety, comfort and love among the lupine species.

Friend Of The Day - John Tracy

Sensitive and dreamy, John Tracy is the friend you've wanted all this time today. He's here to wrap your arms around you as if you are 2 again, and then cradle you in his soft arms. Here him whisper now:

"Sssshhhh....my little baby girl..."

Mr Men Search & Find: Did Not Finish: A Review

MR Men Search and Find Activity Book by Roger Hargreaves
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This Mr Men book was such fun, but the major downside is, some things are ultra hard and difficult to find, such as the train in the funfair scene, or some of the butterflies in the forest scene. Mr Small, Little Miss Tiny and Mr Nobody are easy to find though - even if Mr Nobody isn't coloured in!

The Great British Bump Off: A Review

The Great British Bump-Off #4 by John Allison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This comic is both funny, outrageous and inspiring. The hearts and skulls that decorate each panel throughout show the characters' rage and kawaii cuteness. My favourite scene in particular has to be Shauna and her fellow contestants showing their movie cakes - the Shrek, Marvel and Home Alone ones have to be my favourites.

Definitely recommend for aspiring future bakers!

Shockwave: A Shocking Review

 

Transformers: Spotlight - Shockwave by Simon Furman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

At first, I found it tiring to read on the drive home from buying it from T T Retro, but when I got home, I found it more interesting that I ever had! Let this be a lesson: don't, and I mean don't, read any comics in the car. Who knows, a Decepticon sickness implant might land in your tummy!
