Help

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Thinking about my childhood, I used too watch a program which I loved but have forgotten the name of. It could have been called something along the lines of ' Ding a ling Tree'.It was quite scary and was set by a waterfall, where a magical tree would sometimes sing. It had a goblin and a young girl. I think that Reeves and Mortimer spoofed it once.

Could somebody help me, maybe it's on You Tube.

The Singing Ringing Tree from Tales from Europe, used to scare the Bejaysuss outta me too.

no Googling was involved initially, I did remember it, one of those things that had a profound effect on me

I meant you're as knowledgable as google (but not as intrusive).

I loved that programme :D Although I'm beginning to wonder if I'm the only one who didn't find it remotely scary. Unlike The Herbs - I just about shat myself whenever that came on!
