Maybe inside every Pooh is a secret Eyore? Or vice versa?

Another Pooh, for what it's worth.  Me too. I thought I had managed to cover up the fact that my brain is so small, but the truth will out. Time to answer some of those junk e-mails I think. |

Let's not have any of that Disney abomination - this is Tigger (and Christopher Robin, Pooh, Piglet and Roo, not to mention Eeyore with whom so many of us identify):
Quite right, Mary. |

I've just taken the test too - and guess what:  |

Glad to see you have the proper illustrations, pw. Mary and I thoroughly approve.

I have done Il Grand Inq's Poohsonality Quiz again, and indeed I come out as Eeyore. Mind you, I knew to avoid the upbeat answers. Not that difficult when you know how. I wonder how the Disney Eeyore plays in America, since he represents everything I believe Americans avoid (not being positive, low self esteem, etc etc?) Is he (or she) regarded as irredeemably British?

Absolutely. After all, I only live a few miles from where it all happened:  |

I thought you were the other side of the South Downs, pw? (My knowledge of Sussex geography being limited.)

"I`m glad I`m not the only one", said Morticia somewhat sheepishly. I did the test again and emerged as Eyore  |

Oh yes, but it's not far - half-an-hour's drive to the Ashdown Forest |

I just took the test, as I had no idea which character I might be (I don't even know who all the characters are, I only really remember Pooh and Eeyore). Apparently I'm Pooh, which seems unlikely to me, but there you go.

I am now forced to the conclusion that this test is a lot of Pooh!  Pass me my coat, Eyore. |

Actually, tinners, my guess is you might be Owl or possibly Christopher Robin, but it is for you to say.
Has anyone taken this test and been anything other than Pooh and Eeyore?
(Just seen Mort's comments.)
You would have thought that Radio 3 listeners would be thinking what Dostoevsky character they are. We already have a Grand Iquisitor.

Could someone who's met me tell me who I am?
I'm a bit worried otherwise that I'll go round misinforming people when I meet them for the first time.
Oh, DB's already answered.
