# Pffft!
Whatever next?
Fortunately I don't think there will ever be another me.

I mean, who the hell would have a name like Rik Waller

# Osiris
the Egyptian god had his hampton cut off (among other things) , but that doesn't mean I'm worried it might happen to me.

# oh you're the one
that hates Ken, explains much

# um
Pootle's quite happy to be associated with the Flumps, it's the Nazis he's not happy about.

# Be fair now
Pootle hasn't screamed at you for (possibly) using one of his gifs or associating the name he chose with fascists.

Instead, he's rather politely asked you if you could do something else and even offered help - the least you could do is consider his request.

it was a blatant rip-off....

# the 2nd one being
"rise to the bait", which you have done rather well.

cheers!
ok, i'll stop using it now. I do own The Complete Flumps on DVD, if that helps....if you get royalties, I've probably bought you a pint.

it's not your work! It's just a kids tv character. Neither of you hold any legal or even moral rights over it's use.
