In public? Hmmmh...At 1-2 songs per party, kind of hard for me to come up with 10 (I tend to repeat myself), but here's my current 10 favorites:

1. Smuggler's Song - Kipling/Bellamy, my perennial favorite
2. Logie O'Buchan - trad., as sung by Cilla Fisher
3. Willie and Nancy - Les Barker (for "Broken Tokens" at NOMAD)
4. Canaday-I-O - trad.; AKA "The Wearing of the Blue", a transvestite ballad a la Nic Jones
5. Maid of Cabra West - trad.; from Frank Harte
6. Whaur' Will We Gang? - A. Mitchell; a fine song about the death of the fishing trade
7. When This Old Hat Was New - trad.; my husband's song, I sing harmony all through
8. The Outside Track - Lawson/Hallom; I've added Lawson's first verse back to the song
9. Lonely Waterloo - trad./Sproule
10. Coal, Not Dole - forget author, but learned from Coope, Boyes and Simpson
