Jacko has left us with his love of ben the rat!Grew up with his music and have respect for his talents, he's been through heaps of controversy for which I don't know quite what to believe.. but I just learned that he had a lil friend called Ben that we can all relate to, a lil fuzzy ratbag! He made a song about Ben in 1972 that is quite cute and I thought I should share with you guys! Maybe you all already knew about this one but if not then I'm sure he would be stoked we are bringing his lil rat back to life!

I totally cannot listen to that song without blubbing.
I had a rat called Ben and he was my world, and I still miss him.
That's Benny in the forum logo. He's the one with more black.

he is a beauty! guessing thats his brother, what kinds are they? I'm still learning which variety is which..
they are all special of course, but i have my most special memories of my past snugglers, Nicky, Nod, Mieko (my first 3 boys) & the extra sweet lily! she was my angel, then n now, the song Angels by Robbie gets me blubbry. my most dedicated elbow snuggy one..  
looks like Ben was eating something sour!?

The one with him is Watkins, but they weren't brothers.
Ben is a varigated and Watwat a mismarked vari.
Mostly they just get called splodgies.

Personally I hate the bloody song!!
It was bad enough the fact that I am called Ben but imagine the stick I get now that I am a rat Dad!!!!!!
