The characters in that one look pretty scary, especially Big-Ears... I think we should buy it for Anita, just to give her nightmares. :wink:

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

I have never really considered these Arrow jigsaws as vintage, but I suppose that this is only one year off being 50 years old!! :shock:

I have three or four of the Arrow Noddy puzzles - mainly for nostalgia reasons, as we had a couple of them as kids. :-D
'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

Actually, Sooty does have legs and feet, lol! ;-) He also dresses similarly to the bear in the Noddy puzzle!

Never seemed to have 'em when I used to watch him on the telly, for some reason. :wink: There was a joke the Two Ronnies once made in one of their news bulletins — something to the effect of: "Police are investigating a burglary committed by Sooty. Harry Corbett is rumoured to have had a hand in it."
