The Poster For My New Den

I'm moving to my Grandma's as a result of her dramatic Operation Ouch-style hospital abduction and then her return in a zimmerframe, and I'm having a new den! Yay! To make it like it's my own professional palace, away from barking dogs, screaming kids and mowing mowers, guess what I'm going to put into it...
That's my poster! With two of my favourite things: Bluey and Scream Street. What do you think? I think it'll be a great addition to my new den! It'll also help me get closer to my tastes, even when I can't see them again. Yes, even adults have posters in their rooms. Especially ones of monsters and Australian dogs.

CBBC: Adult Life - Drinking & Smoking

TRACY BEAKER: Everyone ready to play the Dare Game, Adult Version?
ARTHUR/VLAD: Yep!
TRACY BEAKER: I'd say it's your go first, Arthur, because you're my-
VLAD: Zoltan! What the hell are you doing with a joint in your mouth?
ZOLTAN: I'm getting high at the moment Vlad. Next thing you know, I'll be cheesing toasties.
ARTHUR: Don't tell me you meant what I think you meant...anyway, I'll spin the dial.
[Arthur spins the dial, and it lands on a picture of a whisky bottle]
ARTHUR: Get drunk!
TRACY BEAKER: Right! I'll get the whisky bottles.
[Tracy gets out three whisky bottles from the fridge, and unscrews the corks, handing two of the drinks to Vlad and Arthur.]
ZOLTAN: Go ahead with your drinking, I'm so high right now...
TRACY BEAKER: Cheers.
[Tracy, Vlad and Arthur drink up, then throw their beer bottles on the floor.]
VLAD: Er...Tracy, I don't think that whisky is sitting too well.
ARTHUR: Mine neither, I think we're going to be sick!
TRACY BEAKER: Quick, guys, the bathroom!
[Everyone races upstairs to the bathroom, and everyone vomits in the toilet at once. Exhausted, they sigh in relief, until Arthur coughs up a hairball, grossing out Vlad and Tracy.

Once they go downstairs...]
ARTHUR: All this sickness has made us hungry. Let's go and find a bite to eat-OH MY GOD!
[Zoltan is shaking a bag of crisps from the fridge open. The fridge is wide open, and there is food everywhere. Vlad races up to Zoltan and starts to snatch the bag of crisps out of his mouth]
VLAD: Zoltan, give it back!
ZOLTAN: No way, I've got the munchies, man!
[Arthur and Tracy pull with Vlad, until the bag bursts and crisps fly everywhere. Tracy begins to sob, and she covers her face with her hands.]
TRACY BEAKER: Oh my god, it's ruined. [to the heavens] Bog off, God! You ruin our lives!
