Share The Fantasy

My support worker and I had a wonderful time playing Don't Panic today. I ate sausage rolls, cheese and crackers and drank lovely purple Vimto. I enjoyed watching my support worker play with her cat Putzell, who in turn bit her hand and loved to be annoyed. My favourite parts of the Don't Panic game we played today were the Women's Perfumes bit (because I guessed Shalimar), the TV police dramas bit (because one of the dramas I guessed was McDonald & Dodds, which starred Cleo's voice actress Tala Gouveia) and naming all the dwarves in Snow White's story. Oh boy, was this fun or what?

BLUEY: "You bet it is!"

As we left for home, we saw Putzell in a hunting position. We had to be careful, or she wouldn't get flattened like a pancake in the middle of the road. I have a lot to talk about. And I just did!

Advice For Sailing In Cake

If you want to row boats on cake just like Norm in today's Norman Picklestripes, here's some funny advice to live by and do so:

• Avoid rocky shores or else your cake will crumble to bits.
• Bring a milk keg just in case we hit any dry cake spots.
• Be careful - you might get frosting in your hair!
• Never let seagulls come eating your cat in case it's their birthday.
• If you encounter an accident, eat your way to safety.

What's Up With Charlie?

Remember, nobody's perfect, and that's OK. Here's what happened to some blue dude named Charlie, who hid in his own dustbin until he was reminded by his phone that he wasn't perfect.

Pooh's Heffalump Movie + Tarzan 2

A dream combo!

Pooh and his friends Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore and Roo go on a quest to find a new friend to play with, and meet a Heffalump not named Lumpy, but Tantor, who is lost and needs to find his way home. Roo instantly befriends the young Heffalump and finds his inner jungle instincts. But the true villain of the film is a Heffalump Hunter who lost something precious and now has vigilance for Heffalumps, and now the Hundred Acre Wood gang must protect their friend at all costs.

Dragonwatch

Luke, Resus, Cleo and I are watching Dragon Tales on TV, describing how wonderful and colourful those dragons are, and maybe even harmless too, wheras in other TV series dragons breathe fire to destroy buildings. We are unaware that Cassie, the pink dragon from the show, is watching our conversation through the window outside.

Other Bluey-esque Life Bites inspired story titles include:

• Scrumptious
• Detour
• Vollibuilders
• Rad-Tastic
• Beano-Fun
• Rebellion

Don't Panic

This is the board game I played with my support worker today. Not only did I find out that her cat Putzell hates the cold weather, but I also found out that she was an orphan, born to a dead father and an abusive mother. My poor support worker. Sometimes she has to learn to live in the present and not live in the past.

Princess Hair!

You'll never guess what! I've just had my hair done!

First, my support worker and I went to the chemist's to get some fun hair equipment, including a headband with a Jojo Siwa-like bow, some hair clips with pretty flowers, a yellow comb, a rainbow brush with a mirror on the back and some pink L'Oreal Kids shampoo. Then I was ready to go! At the hair salon, I enjoyed having my head massage while some shampoo and conditioner was applied to it, then I was sat at the chair while the stylist brushed, combed, dried and cut my hair and I told her about everything at my new Princess Pamper Place. The L'Oreal poster, the kids' gown with puppy pawprints on it, and the magazines she often lets my friend read. They're a bit too grownup and scandalicious, but trust me, I think she'll get some kids' magazines soon. I even had creamy L'Oreal mousse applied to my hair, and I looked rather like a boy! I made the stylist laugh by telling her all about my age and Barbie and My Little Pony and almost everything, and I thought up inspiration for a new My Little Pony character called Coco Cucumber, a green pony with a coconut for a Cutie Mark! After my treatment, I felt so much like a princess, and the stylist even let me have a sweetie from her sweet jar she saves for people who have been good. This is the best hair salon ever!

I'm going back there next month, on the 28th. What do you think of that?

FLUTTERSHY: "You're a true princess!"

Home Movies From Scream Street

Luke, Resus and Cleo love to watch home movies of when they were preschoolers together, according to my good friend Brunia. They saw videos of them playing with their toys. Cleo is just prancing about in a carefree way in her princess dress, while Luke and Resus are playing with toy cars. One time they went on a camping trip and told scary stories, but had nothing to fear because they were here for one another. I love how Brunia depicts them as friends who'll never part, no matter how much fun they have. It's just how I want them to be.

Share Bear & Friends

The Care Bears have some human friends who would like to tell you about their experience in watching one of their full length adventures, Share Bear Shines. I remember the 'I Believe' song and everything Share Bear mentions like pizza, rolling down hills, chocolate cakes and the beach...I bet these kids got to share in the magic of Share Bear's beliefs too!

Turning Red + Finding Nemo

What if Turning Red combined with Finding Nemo? Well, here's how it would happen, according to my good friend, Brunia:

Ming and Mei-Mei form a close bond. Ming, knowing the dangers of the world, tries to keep Mei-Mei protected from it at all costs, even when she transforms into a red panda. When she is taken by animal traffickers, Ming gets help from a fish named Dory, who helps her find her. From there, she learns to loosen the leash and help Mei-Mei spread her wings.

Much better than the actual film, eh?!
