I remembered during the time (1997-1998), when teletubbies was so hot, I happened to grap the last one in Toy'R'us, this family was following me all around the toy shop until I went to the cashier to make payment. I could see from the side of my eyes that the parents and their children were very disappointed. There was also news that people in Britian were crazy over the teletubbies toys and how these people dashed to get the toys during the launch.<br /><br />ChrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109681525590028536.post-88061710154301657922010-07-24T11:04:47.593+08:002010-07-24T11:04:47.593+08:00SC: L-A has an elephant memory plus a sentimental ...SC: L-A has an elephant memory plus a sentimental heart so she was the one who remembered the photos she'd taken with her toys! I know what you mean lah, so many old photos, some of them yellowing and falling apart in old albums, but I don't have the energy to sort them out, groan...monlimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17397210688200284987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109681525590028536.post-57907165486054596122010-07-24T00:52:16.073+08:002010-07-24T00:52:16.073+08:00Hi Mon,

I have so so, oh so many pics stored in different formats that it's unthinkable just how to do it.<br /><br />SCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109681525590028536.post-82714266200336356192010-07-23T14:35:43.995+08:002010-07-23T14:35:43.995+08:00MY: I have an old bear too!

My gosh by then the bear had already become a stitched bear. A very used bear with lots of patches here and there. Most important it also had a smell that only I like but will keep everyone far away from it.LOL!!<br /><br />~ myAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109681525590028536.post-21860860272526483102010-07-22T16:45:02.834+08:002010-07-22T16:45:02.834+08:00KJJ: Haha, you hate Teletubbies cos you're see...KJJ: Haha, you hate Teletubbies cos you're seeing it with the cynical adult eye lah. But I realise for kids up to 2 years old, esp before they can talk, many of those cartoons are beyond their comprehension. Even Sesame Street requires the child to have a basic understanding of dialogue and concepts, that's why Teletubbies was such a hit. Of course when they're older, all the cartoons appeal. My kids love Scooby Doo, T&J, Pink Panther, etc. But I did find Barney very annoying cos all the kids were so theatrical :Pmonlimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17397210688200284987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109681525590028536.post-39283306390775350352010-07-22T16:27:21.885+08:002010-07-22T16:27:21.885+08:00teletubbies!!!
