We once went and watched Owen do a mini production of Noahs Ark at school, and when it got to the song 'The Animals Went In Two by Two', there was a couple of little boys at the back who could be heard to be singing with great gusto 'The Animals Went In to The Zoo'

At the pre-school christmas play last year the children had to sing:

 

"Little donkey, little donkey,

Had a heavy day.

Little donkey, carry Mary

safely on her way."

 

For some reason, a few of the children (one of mine included!) were singing:

 

"Little donkey, little donkey,

Had a hairy day......

 

The thought of a donkey having a bad hair day sent me into fits of giggles. :D

We went and watched my friends little in daughter in her Sunday School Nativity play last year, through in Glasgow. They all came on as Angels, and shepherds (complete with tea-towel headdresses), Mary and Joseph came in with obligitory dolly Jesus, and they all started to sing 'Away In a Manger', only they must have picked the first line up wrong, and they all sat in the front of the church, and sang 'A WEAN* in a manger, no crib in the red'

 

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

*NB, for all you English folk, wean is pronounced so it rhymes with pane and means small baby!

Yes, but spelled wean - it's a west coast word for baby.

it's used quite a lot in Hartlepool (where I used to live) along with the word "bairn"

 

"how are the weans?" is a very common question... (I still use it down here - but "Ooops, word censored!"ody has the faintest idea what I am on about.)

Of course

 

back to the howling old owl in the wood

Hunting the horny backed toad

 

See I kenew I knew it and it is my favourite elton John song :oops::lol:

 

 

that's the fellah! what on earth is that all about??

 

I didn't doubt that you were working - I meant "after tea" as in later in the day after the evening meal (wot some folk call "dinner") - when you had finished work rather than cup of tea... :wink:
