Old rhyme
Down In the Jungle
Livin' in a Tent
Better than a Pre-fab
No Rent
An old man was saying this rhyme today... I have a vague memory of it from when I was little..

Re: Old rhyme
I remember Charlie Chester on the radio saying that. Go on then, let's hear it, "Who was Charlie Chester then?".

Re: Old rhyme
We used to say:-
'Down in the jungle, living in a tent
Want to go t'toilet.
(Then you made a raspberry noise) .. too late'
How silly and childish it was ... but G-C considered quite rude then, wasn't it ? and used to make us giggle behind cupped hands..

Re: Old rhyme
Charlie Chester was a comedian who was very popular in the 40s and 50s. He had his own radio show for a long time.

Re: Old rhyme
This is a rhyme that my grannie used to tell us kids to make us laugh.
Not last night but the night before
Three tom cats came knocking at the door
One had a trumpet, one had a drum
and one had a pancake stuck to its bum
