Kitty Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I was just about to type 'And so to bed...', when I thought that I would like to find out what is your favourite expression/quotation.Mine is: "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live a day without you." - Winnie the Pooh to Christopher Robin.

Furry Knickers Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 [quote user="Cathy"] "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live a day without you." - Winnie the Pooh to Christopher Robin. [/quote]That is so lovely[:)] I can believe Winnie saying something like that, he is sensitive and sincere and really quite emotional. I would love to live with him.

just john Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Gosh FK you are so right, how come you are so clever, do you have Pooh on your bookshelf? [:$]; I don't have Pooh on my bookshelf anymore, (though I read them with Bestest love you up to the sky granddaughter who does, together with Hungry Caterpillar, Princess Bella and Stephanie from Lazy Town; when the old grey cells struggle I have been known to use aids) is that a sin too?[:P] It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"[8-|] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am deeply, deeply sorry[kiss]Will you accept that kiss as a token of me sincerity? I have never had pooh on me bookshelf (except when the gerbil gets out) but I have seen the cartoons when I was only young and I have to say, I did develop a massive crush on Winnie and wanted to be near him all the time. I can't remember many of his sayings and would not cheat by looking on the net for them, but I was enchanted by Cathy's original Pooh quote, it is a line I shall be using in me future courting rituals.

Pierre ZFP Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Here's another snippit for your consideration. Not sure if it should be in the 'Adult' version though [:$]"So it does!" said Pooh. "It goes in!" "So it does!" said Piglet. "And it comes out!" "Doesn't it?" said Eeyore. "It goes in and out like anything." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
