Re "Our Father who art in heaven" - I always thought it was my Uncle Harold - "Harold be thy name" :-)

Azizi, Tony the Tiger must have got around. We had Kelloggs Sugar Frosties and Tony the Tiger saying "They're grrrrrrrreat!" here in Oz too. I think we still have the Frosties with the picture of Tony on them in fact. Come to think of it, tigers figured quite a lot in our ads - there were also ads for a brand of petrol where the slogan was "Put a tiger in your tank".

Back when I was a kid and our National Anthem was God Save the Queen (it's Advance Australia Fair now) the second last line went "Long to reign over us". I used to think it was "Long to rain oh for us".
