Jack, it's been part of my "bugger about till I think which song I am supposed to be singing next" since about the mid '80s. I'd love to know where I got it from but like the others , (pigeon coming home from the chippy and the mating call of the giant deep sea clam,) I have no idea.

Joe sees the bible as a book of bedtime stories. pete sees it as a documentary. Both defend the principle of a sentient creator who gives a shit. Me?
