Safe Cross Code



C'mon now ....you all know the words.

I was singing this to Sam's girls out in California.Thus cementing my nutter status.

A jolly song for a cold Monday morning. Everybody else has snow and we MAY get it. First time for years - if it comes.

Pat,
I'd say most Irish people of my generation could sing that song by heart.
I hope you'll be able to enjoy the snow if it comes.Lovely to look at but not much fun getting to work through.

Strange I don't know the words, our RTE reception was very bad, probably something Big Ian did so we didn't get the Irish telly poison.

We got Darth Vader in green tights and a west cuntry accent.

Like Old Knudsen, I remember David Prowse in tights. Unfortunately I also have flashbacks of Alvin Stardust wearing leather gloves telling kids about the Green Cross Code too

Hah, I would have paid fine money to have witnessed that!

Knuddie,
I remember seeing the Green Cross Code ads in the UK comics.I found it a bit odd when we had that song.

Paisley might have been on to something.Brendan Grace (the singer) went on become Fr.Fintan Stack.

David Prowse? Really?

Kim,
Alvin Stardust? Was there an epidemic of kids throwing themselves under lorries?
Madness.
