We went to the panto many years back, and the join-in chorus was

Pardon, Mrs Arden, there's a kitten in your garden,
Going miaow, miaow, miaow, miaow, miaow.

Going miaow, miaow, miaow, miaow, miaow.

..and so on. That still comes to mind on occasion....

[boxtops]

Ah, yes - JJ, I remember that from my Life Support training! (but no, I haven't done anything like that today!)
