LORD FRANKLIN by Les Barker
Les Barker parody of Lord Franklin (DT)

With a hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
His maps were faulty and his compass bent
By mid July he was in Stoke-on-Trent

Claudy by James Fitzsimmons commemorates those who died in a no-warning bomb explosion in the village of Claudy County Derry, Northern Ireland 31 July 1972. The month is mentioned in the first verse.

Brigham Young
They arrived in Salt Lake valley on July the twenty-fourth
A thousand miles they travelled they were very tired of course
Brigham Young was sick, weariness was on his face,
But he raised up on his elbow and said "This is the place."
