Ok, scrap my first attempt, it sucked big time... but this isn't getting any better, ok, let's try this one, but i'm still not happy with it:

becomes...

You are seriously tricky Alex, it's unreal... originally you were Pepe le Pew, but that seriously wasn't working. I don't know why you seem to French though, odd.

I'm still not done with this one.

Hahahahaha! I nearly fell of the chair laughing. Both because I apparently look like a singing gay French candlestick, and because you fancy the candlestick! I do like John Smith and Tarzan too, although I don't think I'd get away with that loincloth he's got on. I suppose Lumiere is nearest to me in personality (God, now I'm depressed!). Thank you so much, Acey, it's the best laugh I've had all day! Remind me again who you are, cartoon-wise. I scrolled back, but could only find a picture of Snow White! Oh, and in the interests of redeeming your candlestick-fetish, have you ever seen 'Dogtanian and the Muskehounds', the European dogs-as-the-the three Musketeers cartoon? There's a spaniel (Aramis) in it that's worryingly 'tasty' for an animal cartoon character!

And i do recall the The Muskehounds, and the Spaniel geezer... he doesn't really do it for me, but, you know, whatever floats yours. The only cartoon charater i've ever really fancied is Jessica Rabbit... and John Smith actually, thinking about it, (really, what self respecting animator calls a pseudo-historical character John Smith? How banal), and the Beast when he hadn't quite finished transforming yet, he weren't bad... Ok, enough, weird.

And apprantly the jury is still out on my cartoon character, some have said Aladdin (er..), some have said Peter Pan, (er...) I personally think Beeker from The Muppet Show. *shrugs*

I go for Peter Pan. A boy flying around in tights, who's best friend is a fairy... come on!

He's Mr. Ben, beloved kids' cult TV figure of millions of English generation-X-ers. I recall Acey mentioning his bolwer hat on several occasions. The other one is from a slightly more obscure Eueopean TV cartoon, 'The Animals of Farthing Wood'. I'm afraid I was being a little...er...saucy with that one.
*coughs and looks askance*

He's a saint, you'd love him, he'd love you... *gets paranoid* I can see where this may go.

Mr. Ben scared me, there was something very sinister and subversive about this man, who was a civil servant, yet never went to work... onto to, for some reason, a dressing up shop to try on clothes worn by other people. There was key swapping and gimp-slave parties going on in that steet. But Animals of Farthing Wood was my programme as a kid, was so stupidly obsessed with it, it was so awesomely cool.

My over-active imagination is highly visualised. Thus, that was disturbingly unhealthy, for both me, and Mr. Ben.

I can see him in the laundry room, sniffing/stealing the other inmates pants. Mr. Ben's sick, he should see somebody... even though i'm the one inventing it, he's quite apparently the one with the unresolved issues with his father

Good Lord! You need a cold shower! I think he'd probably be the weasely little informant, sucking up to the Governor in an attempt for early parole. I only posted him because of the bowler hat, I honestly didn't mean to completely traumatise you!

Edited because of far too many typos. Too much ouzo in the Greek restaurant...

Ha! If you want something else to read, you should read his (Barry Humphries') autobiography; it's very funny, particularly his scathing comments about his middle-class Australian parents, and the pranks he used to get up to at drama school.
