Subject: Boys of the Lough song From: Matt Date: 07 Dec 99 - 03:15 PM There's a B.o.t.L. song that I have heard that I can't find. "The very next night we spent on board, I spent it with my Nancy. And you may be sure and very sure that well she pleased my fancy." |

If any one runs into Cathal McConnel, over there in Edenburgh, give him my best, Larry in New York, the ex-currach builder. |
