Summers Gone....

Its a sad day today.

Summer has gone. CBeebies have decided that its not enough that we are thinking of turning the heating on, they have changed the summer song.

I am very sad about this Tabthia is too young to understand but our moments of pleasure at dancing to the Summer Song are over and it has been replaced by The Autumn Tune. I'm so far not impressed. It may be a grower but i have a few issues with it already.

I'm not sure about the whole helmet thing going on, if it is to stop the falling apples hitting them on the head the child in the viking hat has very little protection. The picnic is seriously over indulgent for the number of children and the amount of food that must have been wasted, shocking. Mostly i dislike the arty light they have used i think its supposed to look sepia-ish, it just makes me want to wallop the side of my tv and fiddle with the ariel.

When i think of the bright, crisp colours, the spinning pretty umbrellas i could almost cry.

Goodbye Summer Song. Until next year.



*Huh? What do you mean i should get out more?*

  2. The Summer song is by far the best. The second best (and a poor second place) is the winter song. Song isn't great but it has the dance to join in with. I was gutted when I heard the Autumn song today :(

  5. I love the Autumn song! haven't heard it yet this year. My favorite though is the summer song :)
    Summer, summer sun come shine
    But come the rain I still don’t mind
    When sometimes, summer skies are grey
    Blue summer skies aren’t far away.

  7. I now can't get the Summer Song out of my head, which may be just as well because I hadn't yet learned the awful truth about it now being the official season of the Autumn Song. Sigh. Went pretty quickly, that summer thing, didn't it?
