I remember that one too Snuffy.

As to the song that started all this. Back in the early 70s I was in a big Melbourne music shop one day. They used to sell everything from pianos to sheet-music. In the basement you could browse through the sheet-music collection and then order the stuff you wanted by writing it on an order form on the counter. A shop assistant would get your music from behind the scenes somewhere and call out the name. This particular day the place was packed. Lunch hour I think. A young man, behind the counter, called out, "Where do you go to my Lovely?"
"Over here, Darling! Over here!" came the sultry reply from another young man dressed in a very straight business-type suit. This was MELBOURNE remember. The silence hit like a sledge hammer. Wonderful.
Cheers, Joy
