Let's Have A Picnic!
An ice-cream truck patrolled our street today, very loudly playing the tune of the Teddy Bears' Picnic. I wanted to run out and buy an ice-cream right then and catch up on some of my deprived childhood. No, don't worry, I chased lots of ice-cream vans growing up, but I haven't seen one for so long! Maybe the world is becoming too safe to let its children run out on the street anymore, or maybe I'm just living in the wrong area now. What do you think?
I soon realised that I couldn't remember all the words to the Teddy Bears' Picnic. So I Googled it and came up with an adorable presentation:

There were only a few words that I needed help remembering from when I used to listen to my record, There's A Hippo In My Tub by Anne Murray which I was brought up on from a good young age.
History lesson: A record is like a giant black CD, which is read by actually making contact with a needle (sounds crude, I know).
Now you know how I know all the good parts of the lyrics to You Are My Sunshine.
