    Because I am a literalist pedant.

    Why is it nobody else noticed what I had done? (I was beginning to think nobody would.)
    Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

          You don't? You could go down the FMB and make some 'friends'.

          Sorry.

          The question was for a favourite Belgium, not a favourite Belgian.

                    Oh good grief - I have just realized that I have made the unbelievable mistake of muddling Hectors House with The Herb Garden.

                    As crimes go, there cannot be many more heinous, I beg forgiveness from the members here present. I can't imagine what I was thinking at the time - I clearly can't multitask. Everyone knows Kikki was Hector's bit on the side in Hector's House and had nothing to do with the Herb Garden.

                      If Hector's House was the one with Humphrey furkin Cushion, it was the worst pile of patronising tulipe on the telly. Those were my exact thoughts when I was four years old.

                      When I was six years old I revised my list; Pipkins was the worst pile of patronising tulipe on the telly, specifically because of Hartley furkin Hare.

                      As credentials for showing I had precocious but top class taste, I knew Rainbow would be an all-time student classic by the time I was 7.

                      Mistake Hector's House for the herbidacious Herb Garden. Jeez. How could you? And Oliver Postgate barely cold in his grave, too.

                      No. There is NO forgiveness.
