We called it Mala.

I think i remember a big debate on Ray Darcy a long time ago about it, can't remember what the correct answer was.

MARLA it to me was always pronounced MARLA with the "R"
to me.

I remember getting white flat cardboard packets of it
with different colours of strips back in the 80's
that always ended up a kinda multi coloured brownish or
purple colour when all mashed up together, and it always
went hard.

Growing up in Primary school the teachers managed to get
bricks of plasticine of one colour which was slightly harder than what we called Marla.

Roll on a decade or two and you hear of this thing
called play dough which was no comparassion and could
be made by any house wife with flour lots of salt and food colouring by boiling in a sauspan.

for the mmore mature you could buy model clay in Easons that was like Marla with the added
advantage of being able to cook it in the oven to may clay.

Had a bigdiscussion about this topic last year with a few other teachers cool

No I tried to tell her one night in my local when we were both pissed but she proceeded to tell me to shut up and drink my tequila.

Oh it's long gone, there's a black hole under my bed where socks, old shoes and other things just fall into and disappear! Never to be seen again.
So you've never done something silly and felt guilty?

So applies to you!

Whatever you say, say nothing
When you talk about you know what
For if you know who could hear you
You know what you'd get
For they'd take you off to you know where
For you wouldn't know how long
So for you know who's sake
Don't let anyone hear you singing this song

During FCA camp a few years ago we were staying over night for a few nights in galway.when we'd finish in the evening we'd shower and hit the town for the night.One guy used insist in making a big deal out of getting ready and had all his potions left round the bathrooms.he'd finish by putting on this expensive aftershave.One evening when he wasn't looking we took his aftershave into the jacks and spilt out half of it and replaced it with 'guess what'.it brightened up everyones evening from then on to see his splash on his aftershave !!
