Hi Alison!

This looks great! Can you coax your father into singing this into a tape machine? Possibly Max and Bert would play it some Wednesday.

Other than the Irish Mudcatters, most of friends have probably never heard of Percy French. Maybe you can write a few things about him. I used to sing another of his songs, "Larry Mick McGarry"

Larry Mick McGarry was the torment of the town
He was a man a woman's glad of but a man would like it drown
With a smile he would beguile away each girl from her boy
Sure, and when he got a mile away he'd tire of the toy.

All the best,
Dan
