*eyes TV* Christ, I can't believe how much this image is ingrained in my memory, considering that I wasn't even born yet (and wouldn't be for another fifteen years) when this was aired.

To be fair, the men didn't actually have to be working that day, because it was too cold to be able to do much of anything at the time.

Oh, OK. I didn't know that. I suppose it redeems them somewhat. :-) I think I've only ever seen fragments myself -- I have but a few images in my mind when I think of it. I never heard them say they weren't actually supposed to work. :-) It's the kind of thing they occasionally show on The Leukste Eeuw and the like, and I suppose they only show the funniest moments. Still, yeah, a classic. Every time I hear that song, I have to think of those images. It's not the best song to motivate me to work. *g*

When they were working on the Wetstraat this summer, I spent many a pleasant smoke break watching people work. Consequentially, I had that song in my head for three weeks in a row.

*snickers* Well, thank goodness it isn't a really bad song (at least, I don't think it is -- it always just amuses me because of that clip... even though, if memory serves right, the lyrics talk about something rather different). And Louis Neefs has got a good voice. :-)

Were those workers that slow then, that they reminded you of the song?
