Moira, That's beautiful! Thanks for posting it. David was a gem. I did pick up that recording on cassette from his wife. Ian Robb published the Parry address to order from in Sing Out after David's passing, but I can't find it now.

ZORRU---Where there's smoke, there's dinner!!

My uncle had a mule and it died one day.So he skinned it. TWO DAYS later he awoke to find the mule walkin' around without it's skin. Seems uncle had been a bit premature in thinking the mule was dead. He solved the problem by tossing a few sheepskins over the sad animal---he fastened 'em with blackberry thorns. That mule is just fine now. Matter o' fact, this year we picked 20 quarts of blackberrys off her---and we sheared 30 pounds o' wool too!
