He is being named "Blue" because he is a norwegian forest, and after the monty python sketch.

Missing man formation just flew directly over the house. Always a thrill to see it.

(yesterday)

I played Mouse Trap! :D

A mixture of very familar things and major differences. I'm sure that in the 90s version you had to build the trap piece by piece as you actually played the game? In the new one you have to set up the whole trap at the beginning.

+1!

The green diving man is exactly as I remembered it.

You used to have to crank a handle to activate the trap but now you just pull back the elastic band snappy bit and let go.

I think the stairs have changed colour. They used to be red? They are blue now. It was a fun memory jog.

Definitely remember building the trap as you went along and the crank.

I still have Screwball Scramble in the loft somewhere.

This is the one I remember as a kid.

The 'Add a piece' squares are clear. They don't exist in the new one. There is no green ball anymore either. The ball bearing does all the work.

Watch out for the sausage
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.
