Wombles:

Wombles-4.jpg

Um....this picture for some reason scares me, like they are about to open their pointed mouths and show 3 inch long fangs, and sink them into my face! And how come the one on the left has a cap on with an upside down pink triangle? Is he the token gay womble?

I used to enjoy THE VICAR OF DIBLEY and the Wombles were mentioned, but I never would have dreamed how terrifying they are! :eek:

If I had to wake up and see either a Grey or a Womble, I think I'd take the Grey. These Wombles look as if they'd climb on the bed and try to suck the soul out of my body, if not just my breath (like a cat suffocating a baby).

That's cuz you don't know from wombles! Trust me, you'd be much better off. The worst thing a womble would do to you is forget to put sugar in your tea...

I suspect I shall dream tonight of the Wombles chasing me with a giant tea pot and a huge sugar cube hammer....BAM, BAM, BAM, with the Mad Hatter from ALICE IN WONDERLAND screaming "Boil him in Arsenic Tea, boys!" The Wombles will bare their yellow fangs (deeply stained from all the Earl Grey Tea.........hmmm.... a connection to The Greys?) and try to give me a hicky.

Of course, I take Paxil, so I have strange dreams all the time. I take your word for it that the Wombles are decent little chaps who never interbreed with cockroaches. Do they vote Labour Party or Tories?

To my dim recollection they don't actually have mouths, so biting would be out of the question.

I would have to say Tory, they very much seem to be establishment types (the elderly ones espescially).

How do they talk (and presumably sing) without mouths? Are they telepathic (with an English accent?). I am so confused by the Wombles. I still think they stink of a Black Ops Mind Control project - probably somehow related to Tony Blair and why England was sucked into the Iraqi War against the will of the people. By the way, forget the tea, mate. I'd prefer a nice gin & tonic. Now if the Wombles ran a freindly neighborhood pub, that might be different. What is their supposed means of support? Or (like so many fantasy characters for children) are they financially independent or living off a trust fund?

I checked around the internet and it appears the Wombles have all been denied Visitor VISAs into the USA. So someone here seems to think they are a danger to all that is pure and thus American! ::)

They sorta wiggle their proboscises as if mouths were present and sound issues forth.

As a child I watched them on TVO (Ontario public television) so northern border states probably got them.
 
God help us if they ever discover these guys, eh? The man who works in the garden keeps a little weed stashed behind the flower pot (men).
