And of course there is the classic 3 Little Pigs Coldseal advert.

I promise I do not work for Coldseal and have never done, but clearly their marketing team were geniuses back in the day 😂

Before I even opened this thread I had the Coldseal jingle in my head! 🤣

The breakfast crew used to do "local" songs too. "This could be Totterdown" to the tune of "This could be Rotterdam" sticks in my mind.

Here is the pigs one 😅🐖 (I wish I had such a good memory for stuff that us actually useful!)

🎵🎶
Well once upon a time there were three little pigs
And they built themselves a house so they'd somewhere to live
And the first little pig, as he was building his house, he said
"I think I'll get some windows that you put in yourself!"

Well along came the wolf, he was mean, he was tough
And he looked at the windows, he could see they were duff
And he huffed and he puffed and he puffed and he huffed....
(Oink)
Sausage sandwich!

Once upon a time there were two little pigs
And they built themselves a house so they'd somewhere to live
And the second little pig, he thought his idea was good, he said
"I think I'll get some windows that they make out of wood!"

Well along came the wolf, he was rough, he was tough
And he looked at the windows, he could see they were duff
And he huffed and he puffed and he puffed and he huffed....
(Oink)
A bacon butty!

Once upon a time there was one little pig
And he built himself a house so he'd somewhere to live
He called Coldseal Windows and put them to the test - 'cause everybody knows that Coldseal Windows are best!

Well along came the wolf, and he tried and he tried
And he huffed and he puffed and he eventually died
And the little pig laughed "I'm so happy I dialled 0800 double 2 double 1 double 5!"
(Oink)

Haha this was the one which came to me instantly too.

At Christmas they changed it to "You drink we'll drive!"

Honestly, it's on ALL the time - how many people have the radiator as the main focus of their building works?
