EEyore, who else? Agrumpy old git just like my old man!

dirgni Mon 14-Mar-16 18:57:55

I would be pooh himself as I always like to test the goodies at the bottom of the container!

louiesgran Mon 14-Mar-16 18:37:32

I would be Eeyore because a lot of the time I feel just like him- as if the world is just too much. Then I look at my grandson and think the world is great.

I would be wol olw lwo that clevre bird becasue I can spell really well hmm

Scungybear Mon 14-Mar-16 17:05:47

I'm piglet - I'm small and a little simple but I always look on the bright side of things :-)

prefect Mon 14-Mar-16 16:53:53

Eeyore for me always - my partner often gives a very good impression of him, but a lost love of thirty years ago was the epitome of Eeyore and the soft grey donkey is a sweet, constant reminder of him.

I get cold feet in bed so it would have to be Pooh as "nobody knows tiddly pom ,how cold my toes tiddly pom how cold my toes, are growing"!!

Venus Mon 14-Mar-16 15:48:24

I would like to be Pooh becaue he is good hearted and always tries his best. He's not a clever bear but that's what makes him endearing. He is a talented poet so he does have a skill. He hums a lot and likes honey. (I hum a lot and like honey!!) Christopher Robin and Piglet are his best friends, and who needs more then two best friends?

I sometimes feel that I'm a bear just like Pooh... 'I'm a bear with very little brain and long words bother me.' He has a lovely nature, so what's not to like about being Pooh Bear?

RosemaryAnne Mon 14-Mar-16 15:31:58

Would have to be Eeyore. He's so lovely and everyone loves him. I love honey too, so this would be ideal.

librarylady Mon 14-Mar-16 15:02:53

I am, and always have been, Eeyore grin - and after all, his friends still love and care for him smile

Countryfan Mon 14-Mar-16 14:59:04

I would be Kanga who is kind-hearted, calm, patient, docile and loves giving motherly advice.

Aepgirl Mon 14-Mar-16 14:55:44

I would just love to be Eeyore. Right from being a little girl the donkey has always been my favourite animal. They always look so peaceful and reliable, but there is a lovable naughtiness about them. Eeyore seems to be gloomy but I think he is just content with his 'lot'.

clareken Mon 14-Mar-16 14:53:43

I am probably Kanga, but would like to be Roo, with his childlike wonder and bravery, following Tigger.

coop7 Mon 14-Mar-16 14:45:27

I would be Eeyore because my wife tells me I make that sound when I snore!! As if.

Savagerose Mon 14-Mar-16 14:10:18

Oh I love honey, but I wouldn't be Pooh, I would have to be Tigger.
Just for the sheer joy of bouncing around! flowerswink

kyalami Mon 14-Mar-16 14:07:23

I think I'm a bit like Owl, although a little bit scatterbrained hopefully I'm the voice of reason :-)

Nanalou Mon 14-Mar-16 14:06:28

Tigger he's fun and makes everyone smile.

caren Mon 14-Mar-16 14:04:20

I would be Eeyore as my character fits more into the character

jeanio Mon 14-Mar-16 13:59:53

I expect my family would say I'm most like Kanga but I like to act like Tiger sometimes and have lots of fun with the grandchildren.

m15pjr Mon 14-Mar-16 13:59:47

Even before this competition my husband and I call each other Pooh (his nickname) and Piglet (my nickname). He calls me Piglet as Piglet is Pooh's sidekick, laughs a lot, is much smaller than Pooh, and, of course, is a little piggy!!! LOL

cathisherwood Mon 14-Mar-16 13:56:58

well if we are going off piste I will be a Pooh stick just going with the flow

Gaggi3 Mon 14-Mar-16 12:58:49

I would love to be capable, kindly Kanga, but suspect I'm more of a Piglet as I'd be terrified of Heffalumps and am easily influenced by stronger characters.

Nanadot Mon 14-Mar-16 12:33:31

I think I'd be Kanga, at least that's how my daughters see me!

belo Mon 14-Mar-16 12:32:08

I would be Kanga. A good maternal role model!

RAZZLEDAZZLE Mon 14-Mar-16 12:24:01

Got to be bouncy Tigger, as I can't sit still for long, always on the go!
