Almost. Actually, you are right in a way when you say that they play _with_ Eeyore. Pooh was playing with Piglet, Rabbit and Roo when suddenly a big, grey stick came floating. Upon closer inspection they found out that it was Eeyore that came down the stream. He had been bounced into by a very bouncy Tigger. The story is called "In which Pooh invents a New Game and Eeyore joins in" and it's highly amusing. Sorry for being slightly off-topic :-) -- .elOle.
