    I always mix up The Animals of Farthing Wood and Noah's Island. They both used be on at like 7am on the Den IIRC.
    Just had a big discussion about Animals of Farthing Wood and Noah's Island with my friends the other week!
    We came to the conclusion that Farthing Wood was really dark; burtal and frequent deaths, racism, I think bagder had dementia. I don't think they'd get away with showing that to kids now

    I used watch it every so often on tv, I was born in 95 so I musta seen the end of it before it was taken off tv but I remember my mam watching it with me and she couldnt even watch the end of it but I was sitting there(like the eejity child I was :L).. Just googling it now and wow.. That show was tough going definitely nothing light hearted about that

    Jesus... I started reading about and watching clips...



    :(


    There's a lot to be said for shows like this though. Like, maybe there are shows with more mature themes in them these days, but all I see when I randomly flick throough the kids channels now is happy, lovey-dovey, "Everything'll be OK if we just stick together and be friends!" drivel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    I actually watched "The Animals of Farthing Wood" fairly regularly up until like 2 years ago. :oWas "Noah's Island" the show with the mammoths and there was also a long nosed mouse animal who would go "Oisky Poisky!"? If so that was the best show ever.

    Anyone remember the time when that one field mouse gave birth?

    Only for this to happen to the babies not too long after.

    Yup. This show had balls.

    Awww lads so awks, was buying drink in a supermarket and your woman starts out by laughing at me then I hand her my age card which silences her laughter but then asks me for another form of ID, which luckily I did have my passport with me coz Im a bit psycho and incase I lost my card or something for some reason. Then she finally agrees to sell me the drink but is laughing again.
    Its a hard life and I didnt think I even looked 14 :(

    Savour this feeling. One of the best feelings you can have in a shop is actually being able to produce ID when asked. :)



    Then you get old and disheveled and they don't ask any more. :(

    Which either happens because you look like a haggard aged person, or because you've been frequenting the place just a little too often...

    Alas, I have experienced both... :( :P

    Speaking of i.d's is there anything worse than arriving to a club i.d in hand only to have the bouncers tell you with glee "sorry buddy, it's 21's"

    or the even more loathsome 23's (i'm calling you out nancy blake's)

    For all the girls who take about 7days to get ready just to go out. This is how to sped up getting ready by 90%

    How to do your make up and wop

    16hrs and 48 minutes still seems a bit long!

    I think it was either St. Patrick's Day or Arthur's Day one year when Angel Lane's (not my choice to go there, believe me) bouncers decided it was "Over 19's". :rolleyes:

    Loosely translated: "We don't need your business here. F*ck off."

    TBH, the "Sorry, not tonight." is far less annoying.

    Well Id be a bit creeped tbh if I wasnt asked for ID, freshly turned 18yr old I dont want to look like an old person :(
    But to be asked for 2 forms was pushing it I thought :L Like I dont look thattttttt young!! But yea, sauntering in for free as an U16 at matches so its not all bad <3

    At least Nancy's are consistent like that! They've pretty much always been Over 23s. There's a little sign inside the front door (to the old man pub section of the premises) that backs it up.

    As SarahBeep! said though, it's really not that great. Lots of creepy men. And a few creepy women too! :eek:

    You don't have to go too far back until your calculated number of direct ancestors around a certain time is larger than the world population at that time.

    My dads great uncle fought in Flanders and was hit with a mustard bomb then came back to Ireland to recover then fought in the rising and then on the opposite side of his brother in the civil war!

    As far back as we can trace is Irish! My mam was born to Irish parents in Manchester though but only lived there for a few years!
