Got to be Tiger...cos the wonderful thing about tigers .....i have red hair and always loved his take on life! grin

cookiemonster66 Mon 14-Mar-16 11:29:38

I would 'like' to be tigger with all his energy and bounce, but in reality I am now more like Eeyore - sigh!!!

Jodygran Mon 14-Mar-16 11:34:36

I would be Christopher Robin and say "silly old bear" in such a loving voice that "everyone feels quite hopeful again", and always play together in that enchanted place at the top of the Forest.

I'd be Tigger, I'm bouncy and full of fun and enthusiasm just like Tigger.

I would be Kanga. I think she is a wonderful mother who is kind-hearted, calm, patient and docile, which are all traits that I hope I have. Plus I love kangaroo's smile.

I would be Tigger with his boundless energy and enthusiasm!

grannysmith953 Mon 14-Mar-16 12:07:01

Everyone who knows me would say Eeyore - solitary, gloomy, oh dear. Mind you, I much prefer honey to thistles.

I would also choose to be Tigger because of his positive outlook on life. His enthusiasm in every situation is truly inspirational. If there were more joyful Tiggers in society, especially amongst the older generation, health and well-being would improve greatly. I have a 92 year old auntie Tigger who is a prime example of cheerful exuberance and everyone enjoys her company.

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

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

I would be Kanga. A good maternal role model!

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

Tigger he's fun and makes everyone smile.

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 :-)

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

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.

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.

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'.

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

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

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

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.
