    Looby Loo was a rag doll on 1950s UK kid's TV (Andy Pandy). She even has her own song . . .

    Here we go Looby Loo
    Here we go Looby light
    Here we go Looby Loo
    All on a Saturday night

     

    She's probably doing time, or in rehab by now!

    It's a relief to know that I'm in good company though.

    I loved Andy Pandy.  They played that here on PBS when my kids were of that age!  I think I loved it more than my three boys, though!

    I did not know there was name for that area!  We have them in some of the finer restaurants here in the States.  Not that I get to visit those very often, but I've been in a few.  Oh, and I, also, remember singing that song as  a kid, too.  So, it had even made its way over to this side of the pond once upon a time.

    That's a British thing?? I remember learing that silly song when I was a kid and I'm American. O_o

    That isn't a real definition; just to clarify cheeky

    Ah, but it sounded great!  And, I doubt very many people would question it!  And, just to clarify, I'm sure there is a name of for that area, but I like 'looby' just fine!cheeky

    Just out of curiosity, I looked this up.  I honestly did not expect to get a valid definition! 

    looby: def: an awkard clumsy fellow

    I think I like Etrigan's definition better!
