Train strike

In the Night Garden this evening, the Pontipines decided to go out for a picnic. When they arrived at the sticks they used the Trombliphone to call the Wottingers and invite them to join them. Unfortunate, due to the inadequacy of the Night Garden public transport system, possibly caused by a rail strike on the Ninky Nonk line, the Wottingers were late for the picnic and the Pontipines had eaten all the food! Luckily, the journey had taken so long that he Wottingers forgot what they were there for and just waved. 

Up and down

Tonight, in the Night Garden, Mr and Mrs Pontipine lost track of their children again as they they all ran riot around teeny tiny holes and stones. When the reprobates finally came home the whole family went out for a walk. Low and behold, Mr and Mrs Pontipine lost their children again whilst the little Pontipines decided it was a great idea to climb to the very top of a tree, leap from branch to branch and topple down from a large height. Mr and Mrs Pontipine looked on and did what anyone would expect them to do. They walked home. Meanwhile, the Pontipine children arrived home down through the chimney! Quite how social services haven't become involved with this tiny wooden family is anyone's guess. 

Elsewhere the Tombliboos were running around in their bush, competing on who could get higher. When it was agreed that Tombliboos Ooo had gotten higher than Unn and Eee they peered out of he window to see that Makka Pakka was waiting below to rub his soapy sponge all over their faces. 

Playing with ball.

In the Night Garden today Upsy Daisy was having great fun playing with the ball and her bed. She enjoyed bouncing the ball and waving it around. Meanwhile Iggle Piggle found Upsy Daisy's bed unattended and took the opportunity to sleep in Upsy Daisy's bed! 

On discovering Iggle Piggle in her bed, Upsy Daisy chased him around the bed before giving him a big kiss and getting into bed herself. Iggle Piggle skipped away to bounce the ball himself. Iggle Piggle is very good at bouncing the ball and holding the ball. Iggle Piggle loves playing with balls!

Iggle Piggle then bounced the ball next to Upsy Daisy's head, threw the ball at her and then waited for her to chase true ball. When the coast was clear he climbed back into Upsy Daisy's bed!

Balls and beds cause all sorts of problems in the Garden. 

Catch Makka Pakka's Og Pog

In yesterday's Night Garden Makka Pakka was busily polishing his stones when he lost his Og Pog. It went off down the hill chased by Makka Pakka, the Tombliboos, Iggle Piggle, Upsy Daisy and Mr and Mrs Pontipine. Only the Pontipine children had the common sense to put a stop to Makka Pakka's Og Pog with a big rock. Well done Pontipine children. 

Makka Pakka and the lost blanket.

In the Night Garden today began with Makka Pakka polishing his trumpet and Uff Uff with his sponge. Meanwhile, during a walk in the garden, Iggle Piggle lost his blanket. He searched high and low but still could not find it! Luckily for Iggle Piggle, Upsy Daisy arrived to lend a hand. 

By the bridge they could hear Makka Pakka blowing his trumpet. It turns out that Makka Pakka was stopped from going about his business of sponging all the garden's inhabitants by a rogue blanket on the path in his ditch. A courageous lean forward later and Iggle Piggle was able to reach into Makka Pakka's ditch to reclaim his blanket. 

The disappearance of the Pontipine children

In the Night Garden today the Pontipines went off for a walk. Along a long branch and in and out of the teenie tiny hole. It was an exhausting walk!

 Passing by Upsy Daisy's bed, Mr and Mrs Pontipine turned to discover their children had gone missing! The searched high and low  before eventually finding all eight of them asleep in Upsy Daisy's bed. 

Just as they were about to wake their children, Upsy Daisy arrived. Much bouncing and bed squeaking later the Pontipine children were sprung into the air, over the garden and down their chimney. Thank goodness they were all ok. Mr and Mrs Pontipine were very worried!

Trousers and towers

In this evening's Night Garden the Tombliboos rode on the Pinky Ponk all the way home where they all took their trousers off. They then began to create giant erections with their bricks. 

All three Tombliboos made a Tombliboos tower of three bricks. Then Tombliboo Unn and Tombliboo Ee worked together to erect an even bigger tower! Unfortunately a very bouncy ball knocked their tower down!

Tombliboo Oo then joined the other two to help erect a larger, stronger tower including an arch. The bouncy ball then knocked the very clever arch down. It turned out that the bouncy ball just wanted the Tombliboos to play with it.  So they did. 

Search for the Wottingers

In the Night Garden this evening the Pontipines tried to call the Wottingers. When there was no answer Mr Pontipine decided that the next logical step would be to send out a search party. 

After searching the teeny tiny hole, the log and the pots it was obvious what needed to be done. The Pontipines climbed onto the Ninky Nonk to broaden their search. Luckily the Wottingers were found in the teeny tiny hole, the log and the pot. The Pontipines managed to accomplish their overwhelming need to wave at the Wottingers and all was right with the denizens of the Night Garden. 

In the Night Garden 25/6/15

In tonight's Night Garden everybody went for a bouncy ride in the Ninky Nonk. Everybody that is except the Tombliboos who decided it would be more fun on the Pinky Ponk. 

Whilst Upsy Daisy, Iggle Piggle, Makka Pakka and the Pontypines had a very bouncy ride on the Ninky Nonk, the Tombliboos looked on from the Pinky Ponk. But after several major Ponks the Tombliboos decided to go on the Ninky Nonk after all. 

22/6/15

In the Night Garden this evening the Tombliboos rode on the Ninky Nonk to a lovely part of the garden where they all did the round and round dance. Another quick and bouncy ride on the Ninky Nonk later, the Tombliboos arrived at the Little Round Bush. 

After a few circuits around the Little Round Bush they got back on the Ninky Nonk for yet another bouncy ride. They got off when they spotted the ball and chased it. Unfortunately they were unable to get hold of it and then they missed their Ninky Nonk ride! They chased the Ninky Nonk until it took them all back to the Tombliboo Bush where they also found the Ball! Lucky Tombliboos!
