Are you like a Barbie doll with a string up your backside, and every time you pull it you say ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’, ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’, ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’, ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’, ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’, ‘Oooh Newcastle, Capital of the north east’
