Parenting Plans


Sod changing nappies and all that malarkey, I’ve decided my most important role as a father is to be the cultural advisor for my offspring. So I’ve given this some serious thought, and here are the THREE THINGS (from each medium) I will be introducing my child to:

BOOKS
HIS DARK MATERIALS by Philip Pullman (yeah, I know, a trilogy)
COMPLETE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES (yeah, I know, a collection)
ALL THE ASTERIX BOOKS (yeah, I know, etc…)

FILMS
The Wizard Of Oz
Citizen Kane
Some Like it Hot

ALBUMS
The White Album by The Beatles
Blood on the Tracks by Bob Dylan
Back In Black by AC/DC

TV
The Flintstones
The Simpsons
Everything David Attenborough has ever done.

That TV section should take him about 40 years to get through, so as far as I’m concerned that’s my bit over and done with! Over to Philippa for the rest of it…….
