[quote user=swingin_cat]When I was a kid, I remember seeing a programme where a man inserted his whole arm inside some bird......:-o
..... Rod Hull and Emu!

Didn't he kill himself falling off a roof or something? I bet what happened was he got up there and then his left arm decided to have a fight with his right arm...

Wonder how many people actually remember things like Rag, Tag & Bobtail, or Snip and Snap (the paper dogs)? Great memories as a kid in the mid to late '60s!!
Marc - as you remember Bill and Ben, have you heard these?
Q: Why is Little Weed green?
A: Because Bill and Ben flobbalot!
Bill and Ben went to their local pub, and as they stood at the bar, Bill said "Flobberlobberlobberlob". So Ben said "No, I'll get these in.....you've had enough already"!
