this one is slightly late today … had a super lazy sunday of formula one and tellyvision box ๐๐ป
despite this super chill day, i managed to learn something about one of the great shows from my childhood ๐๐ป
#tdil the little car โbrumโ was so called because he was a brummie ๐ฌ
so, for those of you who arenโt part of the 90โs fam ๐ – brum was a show that ran between โ91 and โ02, that consisted of a tiny car from the 1920โs constantly escaping a museum to explore the great city of birmingham ๐.
as a lover of both cars and brummies #backtomyroots, brum is literally my perfect tellybox show ๐บ … like, it just doesnโt get better than that ๐๐ป … i actually quite miss brum (i just hadnโt realised until right now ๐).
anyway, back to the fact! i was always under the impression that brum was named โbrumโ due to him being a car and cars saying โbrum brumโ. turns out that i was only 50% correct.
part of the reason that brum was given his name was due to him living in a museum in birmingham ๐ brum was totally a brummie ๐๐ป.
you know, after writing this, it has occurred to me how much sense this fact makes ๐ … i think the true fact of the matter here is that i was too young to actually realise brum was filmed in brumland ๐ had i known that, iโd have possibly guessed this fact sooner ๐
oh well, i guess itโs been a while since we had a post that was complete drivel … so this comes as a welcome change ๐ – tomorrow we shall return to hardcore actual facts! ๐ค #weprobablywont
anyway, i think thatโs enough from me today ๐
iโm out โ๐ป #tdil
