What a strange Ear Worm
« on: December 23, 2018, 15:02 »
Woke up with this one a couple of days ago.   I have no idea why, and I could only remember a line.  I asked my friend, who looked at me as if a needed locking up.
The line was - 'If you don't want the Whelks, don't muck em abht'

Curiosity has got the better, and I have just Googled that line.    It was   Billy Cotton and his Band, with Alan Breeze singing some of the lyrics.     OMG, I must only have been about 1 year old !!    Mrs Bouquet
Birds in cages do not sing  -  They are crying.

Takes all sorts Mrs B, but you surely must have heard, or read, something to trigger the recall - even if you didn't register it at the time.

I've given up wondering about the strange things, like this, that pop up in my mind at times  ::)

The next line would be subject to immediate moderation, Mrs B!

My dad used to sing this with a huge grin...

Perhaps those songs of olden days were a  bit cheeky.  At least they gave people a laugh.  :lol:  Mrs Bouquet

Blooming heck - talk a bout a blast from the past. Favourite telly watching of my parents. Mind it was pushing it a bit for me who'd moved on from Radio Luxembourg and found it a bit old hat.

You may be right Mum.  I had been watching a programme about 'The Two Ronnies' and Bill Cotton was on, and I remember thinking he is Billy Cotton's Son.    Also been watching MasterChef, and all that horrible seafood .  Mrs Bouquet
