The song is called ‘Little Plum’ by Darryl Way:

Radio/TV advert for me at this time of year:

“There’s a magical place, we’re on our way there,
with toys in their millions, all under one roof...”

Now that brings back memories. Good old night owls. Was always tired for school the next morning.
The advert for Mr Rahman clothing alterations always sticks in my mind. 190 Westgate Road, near the motorbike shops!

It was this one!

On holiday in France I was amused to hear the Auto glass ad - but in Europe they call it Carglass! 'Carglass repare, Carglass remplace'.

I can't hear Waltzing Matilda without mentally replacing the chorus with Dorchester Timber.

I’d completely forgot about that advert! I couldn’t get past either the Garry & Matt New windows advert, or the classic ‘See the world through a Budget Window...’

There seemed to be a lot of people selling windows, come to think of it.

@NeedMoMoney oh my god!!!! Every time I have to get a taxi, I sing this 😂😂

"You buy one....you get one free....I said you buy one....you get one free!!!"

A cut or small burn?
A scrape or a bruise?

On and on and Ariston!

Canderal in the morning, canderal in the evening...

Have it all, have a baaaaallll... In Is-ra-el

On and on and Ariston!!!

Yes!!! As a child this advert was out and I hated how slow the words were said really creeped me out. I remember my mum explaining about it being designed that way to stick in my head (early marketing lecture 😂😂)... She wasn't joking 35 years later and I still remember it!!

"Mitchell's Self Drive, where people come first! "
"And come back again!" added after

"Richards' shops are full of pretty things
Lots of lovely pretty things, to wear...
Hey! They're pretty things..."

Ah yeah I remember the budget window one. See the world through a budget window, come home to a budget door! There were indeed loads of ads for windows.
