+Just a quick… note?
+
+I was surprised to find a DVD of the Animals Of Farthing Wood (German: "Als die Tiere den Wald verließen")
+in the library.
+I knew I watched this… "cartoon" (? Saying cartoon feels almost "too cheap") as a child. So I was quite happy
+about it. I've been re-watching this, I think, the first time in around 30 years.
+(And I'm not quite finished yet).
+
+I expected kind of nostalgia. What did I get? [1]<br/>
+I feel kinda… surprised that I remember *absolutely nothing* from the plot.
+
+I mean, sure, the animals were leaving their original home due to human destruction.
+I remembered at least one of the main characters. But apart from that?
+Nothing "rung a bell". I didn't remember *any* episode.
+
+So it's not like refreshing memories, but it's more like watching this for the first time.
+
+And also, maybe this is because "I'm an adult now", but, oh boy, this series is *dark*.
+
+Oh, and also: I was kinda also hoping to hear the German intro (or was in the outro?) song again,
+["Gib Niemals Auf"](https://yewtu.be/watch?v=lqypNpCOdWE) by "Corinna and Dirk".
+But for some reason (copyright / legal stuff maybe?) both the beginning
+and the ending only have the instrumental part. Which is a bit of a pity.
+
+So yeah, that's all, just this.
+
+[1] Tears!
