I knew Ewan and Peggy whilst you were still in BABYGROS.

Even at 48 your goat-like senility makes me feel like a scampering lamb by comparison. Once again, old timer, as it's obviously taking a while to sink in - I DO NOT CARE IF YOU KNEW EWAN MACCOLL IN A PAST FECKING LIFE; THE POINT HERE WAS TO COLLATE THE FOLKLORE & LEGEND SURROUNDING THE LIFE OF A CELEBRITY FIGURE.

I will lend you a two shilling piece - sorry ! - you are too young to remember the proper money - I will lend you a twenty penny piece (20p),

Not so young that I don't remember that two shillings was actually equivalent to Ten New Pennies (10p) - two bob.

and then, when you have a constructive comment to make, as to the music you claim to love - and, more importantly, about the people who risked everything to make sure that it passed to the likes of you and me

I love Traditional Music, Bryn - can't say I've ever been too impressed by much that the so-called The Revival had to offer - EM included. I'd love to know what these people risked by the way.

Oh, please, do telephone me.

This is getting creepy...
