Thread Name: Req: Little Ram's Island/Ballinderry / Balinderry
Subject: RE: Req: Bonny Rams Island/Ballinderry
Robert Cinnamond had more verses than the Makem version I wrote out from memory, a lovely version ... you will learn quite a bit more about the song if you see the Ballinderry thread linked by Jim Dixon.
Joe, you could take "Balinderry" away from the long thread headline as the placename isn't spelled that way. Maybe if it appears in some messages in the discussion that will be enough to help people who are doing a search and using the wrong spelling (outside of Mudcat, search engines will lead you from Balinderry to Ballinderry)
Anyone want to have a day trip to Rams Island?

Well, Mudcat search engines are a little more primitive. Alternate spellings in a thread title can help. I try to put alternate spellings in ancillary threads like this one, and not in the main "origins" threads. There is a madness to my method.
