Back to google again...[/quote] Topo Gigio - sad ain't i!![/quote]Yes very, but then, so's this thread, really. A bunch of old f*rts discussing something or other, and they can't even remember what it is, half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 [quote user="S"] Sorry, it was about a horse from Italy and not a mouse from Italy! When you're young a mouse on tv looks very large, so a horse and a mouse can look similar in size and mistakes are often made.[/quote]I feel like I've strayed into an episode of Father Ted!Google had to wait until GP practice ( a good deal more interesting than the race itself is likely to be)was over.

cooperlola Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 So Champion wasn't the Wonder Mouse then? Goodness, my memory's failing me these days.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 He was a horse, I'm sure of that now! Did you know that rat in Italian is ratto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Well you know, that just confirms what so many of us already thought. In order to speak Italian, just double the consonants at the end of nouns and add an o. Oh, and say it more loudly as well of course.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YCCMB Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Has anyone else forgotten that one about the magic thingy by a bunch of Australian folksingery people with twangy guitars? It was supposed to make small people go to sleep. I've definitely forgotten it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 Was it a magic bus that they sang about? "magic bus you're taking us away, how I wonder where we'll go today" is it that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 But Betty, I forgot that you had forgotten [:)] You know the horse song mix up? I was thinking of Sylvester Stallion all the time! I always confuse him with Champion The Wonder Horse, hence the Italian connection.

S Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 As I am sipping some fine wine, it reminds of a song that goes "How I long to taste your sporran juice, when at last they let me loose" I have no idea who sang it or the title of the song, but it was out in the 60's. I would love to hear it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used sing it while riding my trike in the garden and let on to my mates that it was the horse from the show. I said he lost his legs after falling down the Grand canyon and had to be sent to England to have treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just passing through, catching up and stuff. Like these songs, my glasses and several recent shopping lists, this was another place/thing I'd forgotten...........but how could I resist a thread that speaks so clearly to me, a woman of a certain age with a hormone-induced memory problem???I think it was a homosexual magical mythical creature I was thinking of, BTW.

Patf Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Can someone remember that really sad song "Where's your Mama gone? Far far away...." My kids used to get quite upset. Who sang it?

It was a group called Skinny Witch that recorded it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
