I.B.F.Fs: Reflections

My first I.B.F.Fs story idea in a week!

The I.B.F.Fs and I love looking at our reflections in the mirror, curious by what we look like, and when the rain stops, we go outside and look at our reflections in the puddles.

Me, You, And...Little Friends: Easy As 1, 2, 3

I've decided to use this DVD to do this Little Friends title, which is of course named Easy As 1, 2, 3. New visitors Orko and Scattershot will visit Dragon Land to meet Max, Emmy, Zak, Wheezie, Cassie, Ord and the Little Friends' dragon friends and maybe learn something from their experience in this beautiful place.

All That WITH SEGMENT TITLE CARDS!

Wouldn't it be nice if all sketch shows had related title cards themed to the tone of each sketch? That would definitely go to sketch shows like So Random and annoying ones like Diddy TV-that would be perfect, because if all sketch shows taught English and how to speak as well, title cards would add to the premise of each sketch. Take Nickelodeon's latest revival of their show All That. The title cards would be similar in tone to those featured on the 'Learn English With Noddy' programmes that were launched in Asian countries. For tonight's episode, I'm going to list down the title cards that would appear before each sketch, in BIG yellow letters against a black chalkboard background, surrounded by yellow marks around the title and a picture drawn in chalk down below.

My Diary - 20th-26th January

20th January

• The Highway Rat
• Peppa Pig
• Guess How Much I Love You
• Thomas & Friends
• We're Going On A Bear Hunt

21st January

At the beginning of the MYATC chapter 'Allie Gets Kidnapped', Furaha and Jetfire relax atop a hill. Furaha blows a dandelion before rolling down the hill.

22nd January

On the night of the Buggy Ball, Pupcake has his nose in his food, whilst Custard dances gracefully around Strawberry Shortcake's cafe.

23rd January

The museum in Helmsdale contained all my lovely stories, including an early story about Haraka the cheetah cub.

24th January

I thought up the story 'The Bell Spell', a Me, You, And...lullaby book which brings Sly's bell spell to a new generation.

25th January

I'm trying to make peace between CBBC and my peaceful, playful Me, You, And...stories. Does peace matter?

26th January

Back then, Noddy was too silly trying to catch the moon. In a new Me, You, And...story, Furaha's trying hard to stop the moon crashing into earth!

Me, You, And...'s I Want To See The Moon

Based on Lebo M's song 'I Want To See The Moon' and inspired by 'Noddy & The Magic Night'.

Furaha fears the moon might crash into the earth after seeing the moon's guardian, the White Jackal, cry. That night, she uses her powers to "help" the moon stay up in the sky, but her brothers and sisters try to stop her. The next night, silly Furaha is lead by her parents back into the forest towards the moonlit pool, where they explain that the moon won't harm the earth in any way, and that, through our reflections, we are one family living under one big, changing sky.

Music To Think About Me, You, And...To

I just found this remix of the French-African film Kirikou Et La Sorciere on Youtube, and I found out its African feel is great for thinking about Me, You, And..., because the main characters come from Africa.

Me, You, And...Adventures - 25/1/20

The Care Bears and Transformers are to be featured in two sets of Me, You, And...anthology series.

The first set, set during Transformers Armada and based on Rhino's DVDs of the series, takes extracts from the story and sets them up as individual stories to help consider issues involving love, guidance and peace.

The next set is based on DVDs of the classic Care Bears series, featuring Kiburi and Ua as cubs helping the Care Bears with their problems and joining them in helping other people showing friends how they care. Each story focuses on one of Lord Mufasa's guardian angels as the almighty lord himself sends the featured guardian to join forces with Kiburi, Ua and the Care Bears to bring love and friendship to a learning world.

Me, You, And Transformers Energon: Furaha's Dream - I Went To The Animal Fair

The nursery rhyme 'I Went To The Animal Fair' plays a major role in Me, You, And Transformers Energon: Furaha's Dream. In 'The Truth', a chapter set during 'Each One Fights' and 'Unicron Unleashed', Furaha drinks Energon leaking from the walls around Alpha Q's lair and finds herself in a haunting hallucination where she is standing in a graveyard gazing at the graves of her dead family members, including her mother and father, which she cries deeply over. As she does, she hears her own voice singing a haunting rendition of 'I Went To The Animal Fair' in a crying and choking voice. She then finds herself in a much happier memory of her and Optimus Prime playing on the beach on earth, but the sounds of joyous laughter are blocked out by the upsetting song. Furaha decides to fight off her fears by singing her own version of the song about what she got up to during the Armada and Cybertron days:

"I went to the animal fair,
The birds and the beasts were there,
The Autobots searched for the Mini-Cons
Optimus was just like my dad

In the days of Cybertron,
I made new friends on and on
And now I have to deal with this
AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!"

And at once, she snaps out of the hallucination.

So, at the end of each chapter, the song is repeated with different lyrics recapping what happened, and what Furaha had learnt. Like for instance after Inferno's death in the chapter 'Goodbye Inferno' the lyrics are:

"I went to the animal fair,
The birds and the beasts were there,
My dad was suffering really bad
Because of Megatron

Who helped me? Well, no one
So Inferno flew into the sun
I had no choice but start to cry
He helped me through this life."

They Came!

My pack of 50 books came today! Here they are: millions of them! Now, which shall I send to first? I'm sending three each, so I'm hoping to send them to Factory, CBBC and my various friends and relatives since they contain my favourite characters from Strange Hill High (which I believe is sadly gone from CBBC, but hey, I can still catch it on DVD), Kipper, Scream Street (which I've missed today :() and Clangers. With 3 pounds with each copy sold, I'll be RICH!

Change-About-Ray & Other Me, You, And...Lullabies

Based on Putumayo's 'Asian Dreamland' CD.

The main lullaby is based on Gobbo's spell from 'Noddy & The Golden Tree' as Furaha wishes her friends and the reader goodnight. In fact, multiple references to this TV episode are made throughout the book and its lullabies, mainly the lullaby set to Zulya's 'Cradle Song' named 'The Golden Tree' where Furaha, the Digidestined and their Digimon get beamed to the dark wood so that a dark force can help them find the golden tree, which grows golden leaves every midsummer night. This is my attempt of bringing a classic Noddy episode back for a new generation of children, along with many other original, enchanting Me, You, And...lullaby stories, like the tale of two lion brothers who brave the storm in search of their parents, from whom they've been separated.

The Bell Spell & Other Me, You, And...Lullabies & Sleep Songs

Based on the 'The Rough Guide To African Lullabies' CD.

In the main lullaby, set to the tune of 'Tabali Te', Elimu the wise jackal offers to use Noddy's bell at the end of his hat to perform a ritual in his House-For-One to help her restless family get to sleep. It also helps to bring Sly's 'Bell Spell' from 'Well Done Noddy' and the classic Noddy episode 'Noddy & The Broken Bicycle' back for a new generation of children.

Other lullabies are themed around Furaha's adventures in Megaman NT Warrior, Transformers Armada and Transformers Cybertron among others, plus there are new original stories involving original lion characters, like a lioness cub and her brown bear cub assistant who attempt to take the first step in bringing her deceased older brother back from the dead.

Me, You, And Rugrats Anthologies

If I had to pick any Nickelodeon show to be my favourite, it has to be Rugrats. This is why, in the car with Libby, I thought up new anthologies set during various Rugrats episodes, told from Spike the dog's perspective as he shares with Furaha in the babies' adventures. In between each story, there's a poem or song teaching us something not relating to the proceeding story, such as sharing and caring. One story during the book 'Halloween' sees Furaha's family going against Halloween despite the fact Furaha's friend Spike loves Halloween and wants to dress up as his television idol, 'Super Hound'.
