It's been a while since I posted about mine, DTE and DTY's telly-box habits. However, this morning DTE requested an old-school Balamory, instead of our current fave Super Why.
We were delighted to be treated to Edie's raunchy number "Come Up and See Me Sometime", but somewhat mystified to see the popular pre-school show diving into the weighty political topic of the existance or otherwise of the state of Kurdistan. Miss Hoolie took her Kurdish guests for a picnic in a thinly disguised Bellahouston Park, and we were 'treated' to Kurdish dancing. I might be wrong, but it looked suspiciously like the BBC had rounded up all the vaguely 'ethnic-looking' children from nearby and raided the fancy dress box, as none of them looked like they had ever encountered a Kurdish dance before and shuffled around looking embarrased. Still it looked like The Kurdish Camerons (maybe I misheard the name) enjoyed it and they immediately stopped missing their intellectual homeland. Good, good.
