Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Letters from Wilfred (Alan Bell)
Corrections. Verse 2 should read
I travelled up to london and lodge in Tavistock Square,
The house is called Les Lilas for all are French who are there.
Yet, in their conversations, our England is their foe,
But I,m as English as a Shropshire lad,
And tonight I,ll tell them so.
I,m as English as a Shropshore lad,as dear Mother you do know.
Verse 3 blowing sands not glowing sands.
verse 4. Mud not muck from head to heels.

Thank you for asking and thanks to all who sing the song.
