Thanks a million Buggs,. At last someone has told me the name of the two koalas. Tinger and Tucker were my favourites. Problem is, no-one else remembers them and I get funny looks when I tell people about them. They all think its a figment of my imagination. I was only about 4 when they were on TV and I set off to their fan club (think my Mum helped me) I got a lovely letter back together with a boomerang.
