Jon Bartlett	ADD: Cod Liver Oil (various) + Orange Juice (120* d)	RE: Lyr Req: Cod Liver Oil	28 Apr 21
Here's a fifty-year old memory: When I first heard Imlach's "Cod Liver Oil" I had a hard time understanding what was being talked about. I got it that the hard man had taken Hairy Mary up the dunny for a quick one but the next line had me really confused: "Oot cam her mother, she was gaun tae the cludgie/Oh ho ho, a bucket of shardfish" A what? Was it something to do with the cludgie? Where did she get a bucket of shardfish from? And what did she do with it? I thought maybe it was German - "schardfisch", kinda like rollmops. Was it disinfectant? A replacement for toilet paper? It was only reading this thread that put me right and corrected my mondegreen. Jon Bartlett
