Shotgun Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I'd never heard the expression 'Super Moon' until a few years ago. Now it seems they're every 2 or 3 months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 As a young geek I once saw Patrick Moore give a lecture about the moon, Do I win £5? And do kids still get taught about Aitken Drum?I am having a torrid time trying to steer my kids towards to the ever decreasing material from Singing Kettle and away from animated American drivel like "little baby bum".Relevant since both have versions of Aiken Drum, with a wild disparitt in quality. An independent Scotland will need a strong Singing Kettle IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 The Singing Kettle is and has been a load of utter shite. I hated it even as a young sprog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that stuff is a distant memory now but IIRC “The Wiggles” were a decent, high-camp Australian version of The Singing Kettle and would often have nice Australian ladies like Kylie on to help them sing the songs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
