Ramblings: Jaffa Cake Advert Song

Can anybody else remember a Jaffa Cake advert from around 1990 which went (in a Jamaican style accent):

Now listen general public for goodness sake,
My family they go crazy for those Jaffa Cakes,
Like when I’m bouncing little baby on my knee,
The first words that he speaks are
“They’re orangey”…
Jaffa Jaffa….

If you can remember it – plus post here and confirm that I haven’t made this up AND, if you can remember it – the full lyrics to the song. If you’ve got a copy (with video) then an Amazon gift voucher for £5 (or similar) will be heading your way!

October 2011 update: It’s been found! See Jaffa Cake advert found

Personal: How to confuse Richy

To confuse me, let me go (in a drunken state) to a site such as http://www.statravel.co.uk to finalise holiday/vacation bookings. Since I’m going to Japan, select “Japan” from the Everywhere/Country drop down list. Get taken to http://www.statravel.co.jp. I understand very little Japanese Kanji, so I select “English”, and since I’m looking for a place to stay in Japan, I select “Accommodation”. Only to be recommended cheap accommodation in London (UK), but priced in Japanese Yen…

Not quite what I was looking for…

Drunken: Still alive, but *sob*

I’m still alive, but *sob*. All I’m saying is Act 42 of “Full Moon wo Sagashite” (Searching for a Full Moon) *cry*.

I’m upset now – I blame it on the drink…

Any one else watched Full Moon wo Sagashite?

Drunken: My head’s a spinning

Like a whirl pool it never ends…

Make note: drinking a whole bottle of whiskey in a night is a good way of getting blotted.

Make note: making an auto-server install/setup script is a good idea to do (as it’ll save oodles of time later)

Make note: Not good idea mixing the above two notes at the same time.

I want to petition for an 8 day week (3 day weekend) so I have some spare time!
