Do you know Bagpuss?






via Blabbing On Arts and Culture!

love her friend Madeleine too, via BBC

hola! espero que esté yendo bien la semana :)
gracias por todos los preorders qe estáis haciendo, me pone tan contenta que os guste el nuevo calendario!!

ahora, permitidme que os presente a nuestro nuevo gatito!! jeje
a falta en casa de animales de carne y hueso
(con excepción de las arañitas y demás bichos que habitan con nosotros)
nos trajimos de Londres un gatito de peluche del que me enamoré en una librería,
me encantan sus patitas, es lo más gracioso del mundo.
por lo visto se trata de Bagpuss
(aunque al nuestro le pusimos de nombre "tigretón")
un felino, muy popular por esos lares,
protagonista de una serie de los setenta, y yo sin saberlo!!
he indagado un poco en su historia y he alucinado con todo su mundo!
este gato, es un muñeco de trapo mágico, su dueña una niña llamada emily tiene una tienda un tanto especial, porque no vende nada.
siempre que encuentra algo que necesita ser reparado,
lo lleva a su tienda y allí Bagpuss y los otros muñecos lo intentan arreglar, hay discusiones de qué puede ser cada cosa, y para que servirá...
cómo me hubiese encantado ver esta serie de pequeña.
su web con su historia y fotos, y aquí los videos.



hello! hope you are well :)
thanks for all the preorders, i'm so glad you like the new calendar!

now, plesase, let me introduce you our new kitty!! hehe
in the absence of real animals in our house
(with the exception of spiders and other critters, whom we're living with)
we took home a saggy old cloth cat that some of you will know.
it was love at first sight, without knowing who it was
i bought Bagpuss at a book store.
(although our Bagpuss is now called "tigretón",
the name of a filled pastry from our childhood )
i love its legs, it's the sweetest thing in the world.

Bagpuss is a british classic, a BBC children's programme from the seventies.
i love this magical story:
there was a little girl called Emily who had a rather unusual shop,
because it didn't sell anything.
"...In the series Emily would find a discarded object that needed repairing and bring it to Bagpuss. She would sing to wake him and his friends – the Mice on the Mouse Organ, Madeleine the ragdoll, Gabriel the toad and Professor Yaffle, the distinguished old woodpecker..."
i would love to see this program as a child.
