Our kids loved "The Big Orange Splot". We shared their love of it. Now we live in a place where nobody worries if we paint the house in rainbow colours. I painted an old car that had been abandoned in one of the paddocks too. It's covered with bright birds and rainbows and stars and flowers. The place is full of interesting bits and pieces collected from the local tip (rubbish dump). They closed it to "scavengers" like us, sadly. No imagination! Now it costs people to dump stuff and you're not allowed to make withdrawls.
Our kids on the other hand are quite glad we live so far from them. I think we are heading for old, quaint and harmless. Joy
