Welcome aboard the site Flick, was wondering when you would show up! Keep an eye on the "meetings and events" thread for organised rides. There is a Wed night social ride happening most weeks if you are off shift.

That's a mighty lovely SRX. HAven't ever seen one that well cared for.

Welcome.

Welcome to the proper little engine...

I'd make a bogey joke, but that'd be a meta pun and take far too much explaining...

Welcome flick

Particularly since Flick was a wannabe fire engine. I suspect you're thinking of Sparky...

I thought he actually got to put out a fire at the end? Can someone remember the full story? This is IMPORTANT.

I'm a little fire engine
Flick is my name
They won't let me put out fires
Isn't that a shame?
One day I'll be big and strong
To fight every flame
Call the little engine
Call the little engine
Call the little engine
Flick!

Ah, thank you for that. But, that is the song. Was there not also a story? Admittedly it is some years since I last listened to The Children's Hour at 7:30 on Sunday mornings.

Sure you are not thinking about the Little Engine That Could? Or the one about the Little Steamshovel??

Possibly. As I say, it has been some years. Do they still have the Children's Hour on Sunday mornings? Perhaps I could listen next Sunday, from memory they used to play the same ones each Sunday, with slight variations.

There must be some KBers with young sprogs. What DO parents do with the sprogs on Sunday morning now, whilst Daddy bonks Mummy ?

Kids today are too sophisticated for that palaver....they are too busy sleeping thru their hangovers

Yeah. All the big engines went out to fight a fire one day and left Flick in the station house. Long story short is that the station house caught fire and Flick got to put it out all by himself!

Ah that rings a bell. I thought he came through in the end. Well, I must say I'm glad that's sorted out.

Damn you Ixion - another pleasant childhood memory shredded :lol:

And the answer is of course TV - the electronic babysitter
