GUEST,Ian Hendrie Songs about or from Bolton (42) RE: Songs about or from Bolton 05 Sep 17

Earlier in the thread there was mention of a song entitled Me Mate and Me Butty.

I'm informed by Bernard Cromarty, who took the poem/song down from the author, Tom Sydall, that it's called 'Eel and Toe.

Bernard has generously provided lyrics and a recording which can be found on the Songs of the Inland Waterways website:

'Eel an' Toe

IMO this is a wonderful addition to the list of songs relating to the canal system and, having listened to it a few times, it's ear-wormed its way into being one of my favourites.
