    You will be familiar with the nursery rhyme "Sing a Song of Sixpence" which finishes with, "along came a blackbird and pecked off her nose." Now, I vaguely remember another verse which ends, "and popped it on again," referring, I think, to the maid's nose. Can anyone remember that verse?

    		It's just a two line continuation of the second verse, and goes - "and down came a jenny wren, and popped it on again".

    		I know it as
    "She made such a commotion,
    That little Jenny Wren
    Flew down into the garden
    And popped it on again".

    I was in the gym and they had a Pink Panther music video on. I vaguely remember watching it in the 80s when I was a child, but I don't remember anything about what the show was about. Could he talk? All I remember is the theme music.

    Being a huge fan of Elton John, I was surprised when someone asked me if I had heard there was an extra verse to his song "Daniel" that was cut due to playing time. Any truth to this? If so, does anyone know the words to this cut verse?
