So what was number one on the day of your birth?

I'm very pleased to see for me it was Doris Day with Que Sera.

[dukesdenver]

I see your Doris Day and I raise you Carl Douglas: Kung Fu Fighting.

[HonaloochieB]

Obviously them cats was fast as lightning, but I reckon Doris fought dirty.

As she said herself 'We'll see'.

I'm not fond of Chicago J, but that song is great for weltering in an ecstacy of misery when you break up with someone.

It's got a 'I've no pride, no dignity, I'm begging you not to leave' vibe to it.

A copper-bottomed classic SS, wear it with pride.

I've just checked my son's date and Super Trouper by ABBA was his birthday song.

Can't wait to tell him.

Wrote and performed proper songs in those days, Charlies.

Not like today, it's all bang boom crash, and references to 'how's your father' every two minutes.

[Ted Max]

The infant Ted Max was ripped untimely from the womb to the comedy stylings of Benny Hill's Ernie.

A favourite of my mother's TM, she'd always play it family gatherings.

My late father would make offensive and possibly libellous remarks about Hill and replace it with Tommy Makem & the Clancy Brothers.

All in all I preferred Tommy and The Clancys.

No offence.

Your mother sounds like a good sort.

I know a former Benny Hill girl, as it goes. She still won't hear a word said against the man.

Call me paranoid, but is this a ploy from Hona to discover peoples ages? if so good darts.
