    ant and aardvark were another from the pink panther show I enjoyed, especially when the green one showed up.

    Wicked vision in Germany just released the complete series in a lovely mediabook "The Blue elise" what a cool name the aardvark has in German!

    Button moon I also forgot from my last list & Who remembers that Saturday morning show with the crocodile round the bend?

    "Children of the Stones" - only one series produced in 1978 - I was 15.

    It was about weird goings on at Avebury !

    yes but in my case it's quite a problem at times, to try remain living in a time where I was happy I have been listening to the same songs and watching the same shows for about 30 years.

    I've watched Brookside beginning to end 3 times that's nearly 3,000 episodes

    Prisoner cell Block H and sons and daughters 6 times through that's 692 & 972 episodes respectively.

    shortland Street the first 15 years 1992-2007 4 times that's about 2900 episodes also.

    As much as I love them and they comfort me I realise it's not healthy to watch the same thing that many times.

    Of course I do watch films and a few new things too but it's often the main cycle.

    the autism lady who diagnosed me did explain it, apparently it's actually common in autistics to have a fairly rigid viewing pattern.

    Sending even more compassion and empathy your way too @Nightcity .

    Im similar to yourself watching things over and over again .

    Its part of who u r and i wouldnt put yourself down for that one bit .

    We are all unique in our own way .

    I myself have a rigid viewing pattern .

    Talking with people like you helps me to realise Im not as awful as some people make me out too be .

    Sending Gigantic big hugs your way and thank you for chatting to me

    It's always a pleasure, and glad I've inadvertently helped you!

    We are just who we are I guess it may be unusual but I'm sure I'll rewatch them all at least one more time in my life.
