[Stephen_G]

Wasn't the slogan for Bounty

"The taste of Paradise?"

[Peter Pedant]

Fries Turkish duh - lies

full of eastern promise !

[Stephen_G]

If this one doesn't get you feeling nostalgic and sets you off singing then there's something wrong with the lot of ya!

"They drink it in the Congo"

[Bobbisox1]

Mmmm, I give in Stephen :0(

[Stephen_G]

Bit of a rhyming clue, 'sox... I can do this from memory...

"Way down deep in the middle of the Congo.
A Hippo took an Apricot, a Guava and a Mango.
He stuck it with the others and he danced a dainty Tango.
The Rhino said "I know, we'll call it I'm Bongo!"
(Um Bongo, Um Bongo, they drink it in the Congo.)
The Python picked the Passion Fruit,
The Marmoset the Mandarin,
The Parrot painted packets that the while caboodle landed in,
So when it come to Sun and fun and goodness in the Jungle,
They all prefer the sunny, funny one they call Um Bongo
(Um Bongo, Um Bongo, they drink it in the Congo - repeat forever)

[Stephen_G]

The Rhino said "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo!"

Not I'm Bongo (*** predictive text)

[Bobbisox1]

Wowser, got to be BA , take it and own it :0)

[Stephen_G]

*** whole *** caboodle
(I give up)

You're never alone with a Strand (except he was alone!)

I think it was Richard Bradford - "Man in a Suitcase".

Stephen G, Here at Burnley, we actually have a young chap (22)on our books who, though not yet a regular, has had a few substitute appearances. Of course we have the empty stadiums at the moment, but if her ever does become a regular and the fans do come back, that song is going to be sung at many a stadium, no doubt para-phrased. His name? Joel Mumbongo :-))
