okay, sometimes I am plagued by these jingles that seem to creep into my subconscious......I just thought it would be fun to list those unerasable jingles that we have knocking around our attics.....a few from me......

That ain't no way to treat a lady,
no way to treat your baby, your woman, your friend.
Nivea knows how to treat a lady....hehehehe

okay another from a stay in Singapore once.....constantly on TV......if anyone knows what it means, please let me know

Chan mali chan
Chan mali chan
Chan mali chan
Ketipooooong paioooooo

(by the way, not part of the post, but I'll put in this famous pop song from Thailand - which translates roughly as 'I grew up in the country, then I went to the city, and got a job as a gas station attendant, and my whole life changed...hehehehe.......

Koy djak ee san
Li bee cow my uuuu
Kun see villla lu fan......of course, that's phonetic, as I only sepak a little Thai - apparently it was huge hit)

another one, this time from the States......I used ta love this jingle......

A&W root beer's got that tingly taste
A&W root beer's got that tingly taste......(with a picture of clean-living American family on a boat)......

okay, Salman Rushdie wrote this jingle......

Aero bubbles, milk chocolate bubbles
Aero bubbles burst in your mouth,
because biting bubbles is better......

and Toblerone, I loved that one.....

Toblerone.....out on its own
made from triangular chocolate
that's toblerone
made from triangular honey
from triangular bees
and triangular something
in triangular trees
and, Oh, Mr Confectioner please,
please give me toblerone.....ehheeheheheh

I liked this one from Ireland when I was a kid......

Put those pastiles down Pa,
put those pastiles down
Pastile picking papa
Pass those pastiles round......(2 kids in a tepee with a drum nad Dad tries to steal their Rowntrees)

A finger of fudge is just enough
to make your day complete
A finger of fudge is just enough
until it's time to eat
It's full of Cadbury goodness
and very small and neat
A finger of fudge is just enough
to give your kids a treat.....

A pickapapenquin
A loverly penguin
When you feel a pickapapeckish
pickapapickapenquin......ehheheheheheeh

okay those are mine
....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    here's one from Ireland - it's a cheap perfume, and the woman is throwing her clothes off around the kitchen as she sings it......

    I've been sweet
    and I've been good
    I've had a whole long day of motherhood
    but I'm gonna have an Aviance night,
    yeh, I'm gonna have an Aviance night.....
