Whenever There Is You

That mug Tracy was drinking out of in the first episode of Tracy Beaker Returns might be a clue that Tracy Beaker is trademark property of Jacqueline Wilson, so with this song, Whenever There Is You by Koop, I've thought this animatic in my head.

In this animatic, which in my head is similar to the nightclub scene featuring Jessica Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Tracy and the rest of the Dumping Ground are at a nightclub, where a sexy young woman with grey hair and glasses - an equivalent of Jacqueline Wilson - sings the above song directly to Tracy as the others stare in awe, some of the boys wolf-whistling to get her attention. The woman was telling Tracy Beaker that she was her creator, and her name was Jacqueline Wilson.

Truth revealed!

Buried Alive

Princess Cake

I'm starting to love the Cooking Tree channel, mainly because all its recipe videos are silent and slow-paced, not fast-paced like So Yummy or Tasty - but I still love Tasty's videos, I'm not being offensive.

I Love Buried Alive!

Aside from the Tracy Beaker audio series narrated b y Sandi Toksvig, former host of The Great British Bake Off, I love my new audio adaption of Jacqueline Wilson's Buried Alive. It's not because of all the glorious food mentioned by one of the characters, Biscuits, but it's because it captures the joy of spending a Summer holiday at the beach with your family and your close friends. Every little detail captures the spirit of a Welsh family beach holiday, and I, love it. All this with Tim, Biscuits and Kelly has inspired me to do an I.B.F.Fs story, you know, part of the new batch of stories starring the new members of my gang, Simon and Gaspard, I.B.F.Fs At The Beach. Here, I take my favourite members of the gang, Luke, Resus and Cleo on a holiday at the seaside, and we experienced the same fun seaside atributes as Tim and Biscuits in the story, except we don't run into any bullies! The story is much like the I.B.F.Fs story 'Road Trip' except it's a holiday at the seaside with friends and family. I think I'll listen to Buried Alive again tonight!

Mum-And-Dadland

After deep and serious thoughts and much consideration, I've finally decided to rename 'Stick With Imagination' into 'Mum-And-Dadland' and I've centered around Mum and Dad ruling their own kid-free world where they can relax in their own dreamhouse, without the I.B.F.Fs disturbing them. No kids are allowed to pass beyond the yellow line in their world, because if they do, their punishment will be a severe tickling. But the I.B.F.Fs, who live in a neighbouring land where kids rule, decide that they will change the rules forever.
