Blue Cavern

I usually get a Metro on my way to work, and read it on the station platform whilst waiting for the train. Today I opened it and there was an article on the smurfs..a large picture of Smurfette and a photo of Nine Culliford and some artistic smurfs. I rushed back up the stairs and grabbed 3 more copies I'll scan the article and put it online for all to see later

That sounds cool Steve, I'm really looking forward to seeing it

The article itself isn't brilliant, but it's just good to see an article about the smurfs in the UK

Hi,

I assume that must be the article you are referring you, Steve:
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.htm ... page_id=34

Hi Dominique, yep thats the one

Hi Steve,

would you do a favour for me, please?I believe that the tour is coming to London, for London is the capital of the UK. However I highly doubt that they come to my federal country, but to Berlin only. In case you happen to find, not only one raw, but another one as well, would you please so kind and save him for me?

I like the photo of the family with all those painted smurfs. Someone's been very artistic.

I'll try my best Dominique

I hope by "Look for Smurfs in eah city" That they have stands/stalls giving them away... They couldn't actually litter bushes and sidewalks with them, could they?

Not sure Azrael..possibly, don't see why not

In reference to the article....

That`s twice now i`ve seen Smurfs described as gnomes!!

How uncool is that??

Oh! Hi my names Jon and i collect gnomes....i think not!!

Steve, I am guessing you had quite a pleasant ride to work this morning!

It must have been a very nice suprise seeing the article and I have to say, the pic (I just checked Dom's link) is fabulous. I want all those whacky smurfs!

I checked through quite a few newspapers at lunchtime but couldn't find anything smurfy.

I did indeed Rachel..forgive me for not posting this last night (my scanner decided not to let me scan the article), but here is the metro page..I hope it's not too big

Hi Steve!

I got a copy of that last night from my friend in London, who as a non-Smurf collecter made a very good observation, which was:

"I don't understand what this article is about? Isn't it just basically "Old Cartoon introduces new female characters?"

To make a fair point, it's hardly page 3 metro stuff is it? Why did they run the story without mentioning the city celebrations? It seems a bit random!

Hi Azrael..I know it seemed a bit weird to not include the 50th celebrations

Hi Steve, Thanks for the posting the article.

It looks to be a fair sized article too.

Hi Rach, no problems..it was the full page (apart from the weather underneath)

They give these metro's out on our buses, and when i went into work on Wednesday night, i was greeted by 3 of my mates holding it up in the canteen ! Needless to say, by the time i left, more than 3 people now know i am a smurf collector ! It was a good laugh tho, and i did say to them.......Has your missus made page 3 ?

...Has your missus made page 3 ?

Good come back though

Thanks for showing us Steve, that's a cute pic of Smurfette

I know

That is a lovely pic of smurfette, she always looks good in a picture i think, better than some of the ways she is portrayed in pvc's anyway !
