  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭Johnny Versace


    They were such sweet kids...

    I'd like to see what they were like when they became teenagers -

    Barry left Ann to do drugs
    Ann is a single mother

    Could always update the text... include other ethnic minorities... example:
    Ann likes black cock.. Ann is a dating a refugee...

    If they are still on the curriculum you can get them in the educational company on the Ballymount Rd, D12.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu


    I just remember they had weird shoes.

    Actually, it's incredible how sexist they were - yet I didn't get brainwashed into being a housewife!

    My girlfriend's name is Anne, one of her brothers is Barry.

    That's just what happens in their house.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭beardedchicken


    ooooh yeah! Pól agus a cháirde? but wasn't pól a big dinosaur, or am i just imagining it? whoever was writing those books must have been really twisted... there was another set of books called ispíní agus subh (sausages and jam) heh heh... wierdos!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,396 ✭✭✭✭Karoma

    What about Patsy the panda and Dino the dinosaur?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,608 ✭✭✭✭sceptre


    'Twas Pat and Ann (with Baby Brigid and The Red Car) when I was a nipper.

    Ronan agus Aine in Irish though (what were they - the Fás A to whatever letter books?)

    Seo é Ronán
    Seo í Áine
    Seo é Daidí
    Seo í whatever the Irish for mommy is

    Tá Daidí screwing Mommy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,890 ✭✭✭embee


    Patsy Panda is ****.

    I feel sorry for kids today.

    Their schoolbooks are useless and their cartoons are terrible compared to the ones of our time......

    James Bond Jnr..... a 20th Century Classic

    An absolute classic. My cousin and I used to knock the sh%t out of one another trying to re-enact it. Fond memories.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,416 ✭✭✭doh.ie


    I missed Peter and Jane by a year; the senior infants were still on those when we started Ann & Barry, so I reckon they were only taken off the curriculum around 1982/83.

    "Ronan agus Aine in Irish though (what were they - the Fás A to whatever letter books?)"

    Again, may be a year thing, but I missed Ronan and Aine too - by the time I started
    Irish it was Colm and Nuala. But I know they've changed again since then.

    Must have a look and see what's going in schools these days...

    #james bond jnr chases scum around the world.#

    god i loved ann & barry. Have a feeling i have one of them still buried in a bin bag, in the attic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,299 ✭✭✭oeNeo


    Jesus I hated all of those books. My brother is using a few of them now, Ann and Barry is one of them.

    Pól was a worm or a caterpillar or something as far as I remember.
