Well when i say a long time ago, i was 10yrs old. My dad was the capt. of a ship that ran between Fremantle and Singapore. He got the posting for 2yrs so we went with him. We were there when you went decimal in 1966, 14th of febuary. I always remember that stupid jingle off the t.v even now ! Keep saying i'll go back but the nearest i've got so far is google earth, our street has'nt changed much.

I can remember that bloody jingle too. Thanks mate.
Just in case any of you Aussie geezers don't now have it in your head......

Sung to the tune of "Click go the shears" (this is so embarrassing) -

In come the dollars and in come the cents
To replace the pounds and shillings and the pence
Be prepared folks when the coins begin the mix
On the 14th of February 1966.

Aaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhh

Beat me to it. Another jingle thats stuck in my head for 46yrs is the old Mortine fly spray add off t.v." Louie the fly straight from rubbish tip to you". Strange the things that stick in yer head for years. Now if it was something important it would be gone in 60seconds.
