My family always did the Doodlebugs (?) "Let's go for a ride in the family car!"/"the family car!"/"the family car!" routine. We would probably still do it, given the chance.

We used to chant "mahna mahna" et al. on our way up to Tae Kwon Do every morning my first year at university.

Someone is playing classical music. Like, audibly. They should stop.

I am definitely excited by the new Cash house, and the burgeoning Robin house. As well as the fixings at GC's. My sister's looking to buy property. I thought I'd come to terms with not ever going to own where I want to live, but it turns out that my sister is the breaking point. ::sulk::

Lunch is an apple today. Wallpaper is the seabed of Grand Lido Braco. Life has been worse.

Mahna Mahna is a great bit!! My brother, sister and I would go around the house singing it, even in college (Kip would start with "Mahna mahna," and Kris and I would break in with "Doo doooo do doo doo!").

and it's also guaranteed to get any earworm out of your head.

I thought that was what "Islands In The Stream" was for.

Doodlebugs! I haven't thought of them in probably decades, and their little voices are filling my head now. Nice.

The bit that most stuck with me was the "For What It's Worth" woodland animals being hunted segment.

I can comment intelligently on Sesame around the world. Apart from Canada (and that one is an, "I think". To my knowledge, it's the same, but with French instead of Spanish), the local Sesame is produced in that country, in partnership with Sesame Workshop. Each country has its own cast of muppets, themes, etc, suitable to the lives of the kids in that country (c.f. muppet with AIDS in South Africa). They get some of the inserts (apparently, the Germans love Bert and Ernie), but not the central cast. China got Big Bird (basically) , but that was A Thing, and not normally done. (on the upside, this means they don't have Elmo)

I was going to mention that one, but couldn't remember the name of the song! Very memorable.

I always liked the "Veterinarians' Hospital" bits, because of all the really bad puns. "The continuing stoooory of a quack who has gone to the dogs..."

I think of that whenever I hear that song.

Wrod.

And the Robin Hood one, where they're cavorting in the woods ("Cavort, cavort, cavort"), and Fozzie says, "Wait until you see a full-scale frolic!"

If you're a big enough market. I'm not sure who we got in Jamaica, but it wasn't just for us. Then again, we only just got colour TV in the 80s.
