not sure what age group I may be admiting to here, but are we into some sort of Beethoven theme

LellyPomPom

No - not classical of any description. Think more along the lines of a theme tune.

Will work if you were at school during the 80's......

I was not at school during the 80's but that does not give my age away

I think it may be Grange Hill

in which case if I'm right

"where can I put my coat Lois" (clue: as in Superman Lois)

well got to go out and do some work now, will check state of play later this afternoonsmiley - smiley

Grange Hill it was - I'm not surprised you got it from my singing - I do have the voice of an angel, after all!!!

In response to yours, I suspect the answer may be.....

Hanger Lane

"Hoot your horn - everyone's doing it"

Just out of interest - since we have been conversing for so long now - what DO you do when you go out and work? It's one of those strange things, isn't it - we all chat away, but know nothing about each other, even whether we are male or female (well - except that you know CaroleH is my Mum, and I am her daughter!!)

It was Tooting - but I got confused, adn was thinking Tooting Common (shocking, since during the University years, I alighted at Tooting Broadway for 4 years!!)

Will check out tube map and get back to you!!!!!
