Hi Hayley, Hi Grannie...it used to be a reference to the jungle war drums, I think...they were hollow thingies that took a bit of time to warm up, and so started off with a rumble sound. Think tom toms...not the navigation thingie, lol!! Love Daff xxx

There's a rumble in the jungle There's a whisper in the trees The animals are waking up And rustling the leaves.
