this was up the same road. lasses and horses, eh? they're blooming obsessed. wait till they discover shoes. this one had been watching too much skippy the bush kangaroo. more of that later.
I only ever watched this. I was in the habit of turning off my TV set to go out & doing something less boring instead.

do feel free to join in! i put a clip of catweazle in the may rip thread because i found out today that catweazle died in may and them two thought it was bizarre. so i thought i'd do a thread instead of muddying the dearly departed thread.

Arabian Nights. Size of an elephant!!!! As you say it was something just to group all the cartoons together, although you can't beat the tune to it, which was later released as a single by the Dickies which was awesome, so good i bought it in Yellow Vinyl, then lost it only to find it again when i visited our kids house a couple of years ago....
