Timmy the horse? Well, why not?
They sing "Timmy de hond" and "hond" is the Dutch word for dog.
That must be it, then!

Thanks for that date....
Its actually on
Saturday 14th May 2011 .....Not that I think many here will be bothered either way!
I have two teenage daughters and I feel I will have to sit with the family and watch it all on our large screen tv with my marantz 100 watt per channel amp pumping out euro ditties!
Ah, well at least it keeps the peace in the family!
Regards
Pete

That ought not to be too difficult.
