Ah i absolutely love this. I’m an 80s kid too and made a huge playlist of 80s kids cartoons to project on a big screen at my 40th. Hard to choose my favourite themes but any list would have to include the Flumps, Button Moon & Bagpuss (I think the opening to Bagpuss packs an even greater emotional punch for me since I’ve had my own kids and seen their relationships with their favourite cuddly toys) 🩷

It’s cute re the kids, I’ve tried to watch She-Ra but she’s too young to appreciate it yet. I do love Super Kitties though, a modern classic I think!

I can't believe this! 🙌 Today I've started writing a post (for Saturday, all being well) about the power of stage musicals - and this beautifully-written one of yours, well, let's just say that you've quoted lines which are an extraordinary coincidence!

Thank you for a terrific and very moving read. 😊😊😊
