me mix up songs? only when I sing 'em.
But I was rite about the sporting connection. Who's ghost come up from Kelsall Church right down to Helmsby Hill? or whatever.
What about the John Betjamin's lyrics set to a Jim Parker tune about Captain Webb from Dawley - comes wswimming along the old canal that carried the bricks to Lawley...?
FWIW and fttdk Captain Webb was the first man to swim the English channel.
