Good to here from you Malcolm Douglas and hope that you are getting "back on your feet"

The Doffin Mistress I have a recording by Bertha Brown (of Tom and Bertha) which is clearly from Ulster ~ alluded to by June Tabor on a tv folk programme!

I have just dug out a book of poems given to me by Ivy May of the Ecclesfield poet Jimmy Roebuck (1978) with some mining and file, rasp cutting and gimlet and fork making content!
