I think we have that on vinyl Jan - we have a Cilla Black record in the cabinet somewhere - have loads of old vinyl LPs. OH is in the throes of sorting out a replacement turntable installation.
I miss not playing the records.

Hi Persephone:
That's right! Brings back some memories! Here's the lyrics:

Oh you are a mucky kid,
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he finds out the things you did
You'll get a belt from your da
Oh you have your father's nose
So crimson in the dark, it glows
If you're not asleep when the boozers close
You'll get a belt from your da

You look so scruffy lying there
Strawberry jam tats in your hair
Though in the world you haven't a care
And I have got so many
It's quite a struggle everyday
Living on your father's pay
The bugger drinks it all away
And leaves me without any

Although we have no silver spoon
Better days are coming soon
Now Nellie's working at the loom
And she gets paid on Friday
Perhaps one day we'll have a splash
When Littlewoods provides the cash
We'll get a house in Knotty Ash
And buy your dad a brewery

Oh you are a mucky kid,
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he finds out the things you did
You'll get a belt from your da
Oh you have your father's face
You're growing up a real hard case
But there's no one can take your place
Go fast asleep for Mammy

Taumaranui, Taumaranui, Taumaranui on the main trunk line.

(a NZ song) about the refreshment rooms in the good old days where we stopped in the middle of the night for a cuppa.
