As a kid my mum used to sing to me: (To the tune of Tiptoe Through the Tulips): Tiptoe, Through the Holmesdale, With your boots on, Get your 'ead kicked in, Oh Tiptoe, through the Holmesdale with meeeeee. I've never once heard anyone else that seems familiar with this so I'd love to know whether the fans ever actually sung this or whether I have a particularly sadistic but creative mother. It has now been posted 3 times on this thread, so I guess that answers your question? Apologies. That's kinda why I posted the first line (which I have now amended to bold for you). I genuinely did scroll through pages and pages looking for it but my specs must need updating! No need to apologise... I was highlighting how popular it was, rather than chastising you. I should have added a friendly smiley icon!
