Won't get there until Sunday this year unfortunately as some of the band have a gig on Saturday night elsewhere (One Stone at Swaledale (Richmond) Folk Club). Be good to catch up with some of you. Soldier Boy, why not pop down and say hello seeing as we missed you at Cropton (which didn't happen). Cheers Paul |

25 Sep 09 - 08:40 PM (#2731491) Subject: RE: Ingleton FF 2009, Who's going? From: Soldier boy Can you imagine anyone marrying Muppett and tying him down to domestic bliss and restricted social circulation? No, of course not! It's a great shame, but it didn't work out. Muppett had a short dabble as a pagan husband at Whitby but has now thrown off the shackles and is a free man once more. Thank god for that I say. He is a wonderful free spirit who will be difficult to tie down and that's the reason why we love him to bits. I hope he does find the right woman one day but she might be as rare as rocking horse droppings! Anyway, he will star again at the comic song contest at The Old Hill Inn, up the hill from Ingleton, on Sunday 4th October (about 1.00pm I believe) so make sure you are there and give this folk hero your full support. |

30 Sep 09 - 12:18 PM (#2735070) Subject: RE: Ingleton FF 2009, Who's going? From: Tyke I think that some Mudcatters should be apologising and asking the Mudcat's Joe offer to remove the offending comments. All they have done is to demonstrate that you no little of Muppets or Becky's feelings. I do not know Becky but I do know Muppet and that he set himself very high standards when it comes to relationships. Chin up Becky I think you will find that you have a lot of proper friends on the Mudcat the majority do think of others and not just themselves. George Clarke |

There is now a Masons Dog Oil Song. I'll let you guess who wrote it. I'm sure it will get sung again next year Kathy |

18 Oct 09 - 07:50 PM (#2747579) Subject: RE: Ingleton FF 2009, Who's going? From: Paul Reade Re: Tyke's question about Dog Fat. The song was written by Jack Lee from Rochdale who ran a number of clubs there, and is still running one - see http://www.folkimages.com/hobo/menu.html Dog Fat by Jack Lee (originally – see below) 1 One day a knock came on the door and when I answered it An old man he were standing there, he were having a coughing fit I asked him what's he selling and he quickly doffed his hat He coughed and sneezed and cleared his throat and then he said "Dog fat". Chorus: Come and get your dog fat, dog fat oh he cried That's the only ointment that can penetrate your hide Rub it smartly on your chest or rub it on your back If you've got a pain you'll ne'er complain if you rub it with dog fat. Dum a diddley di do, dum a diddley day. 2 Dog fat is fair for falling hair, it cures the griping pain If you use it neat it's good for your feet, makes cripples walk again It'll surely take spots off your face and burst boils on your back It'll cure with ease rheumatic knees, oh rub 'em with dog fat. 3 My dad has always wanted curly hair on his bald head But medical science can't do a thing, that's what the doctor said But yesterday he rubbed a lump of dog fat in the strands When he got up this morning he'd got hair all over his hands. 4 There used to be a girl who thought her figure was not complete Oh yes, she had a pretty face, and her legs were rather neat But her chest was flat, so she used dog fat as bust developing cream When she woke up another little bust had grown in between. 5 Constipation were troubling Ada Plum, it drove her in a tiz She'd heave and strain and squeeze her head, but still she couldn't biz Then she took a dog fat suppository and quickly lost her frown She had to get off toilet twice to stamp the bugger down. 6 Well it's good for your lungs and it's champion for your heart And it cleans out your stomach, every last little part And if you want a contraceptive girls, dog fat's the thing for you Just stick a lump between your knees, it sticks like bloody glue. Dog Fat - The Guilty Men Verses 1,2, chorus Jack Lee Verses 3,4 Slightly adapted by Paul Reade (couldn't remember Jack's original verses which are):- 3 My dad has always wanted curly hair on his bald head But medical science can't do a thing, that's what the doctor said But yesterday he rubbed a lump of dog fat in the roots When he got up this morning he'd got hair down to his boots. 4 There used to be a girl who thought her figure was not complete Oh yes, she had a pretty face, and her legs were rather neat But her bust was small, and though she tried all the ointments from the quack Now her bust is forty-four, with rubbing 'em with dog fat. Verses 5,6 Tony Downes (sings in Hanky Park http://www.hankypark.co.uk/ ). |

From: GUEST,galloway folk further derivatives of the Dog Fat Song verses as sung by Galloway Folk I believe Mr Jack Lee might vary his renditions as he performed the song. Most of the verses below 9slightly adapted)were based on a cassette tape I managed to get my hands on some years ago. This version is now linked from the masons dog oil website This couple they had tried for kids for years and years and years She fed him well on marrowbone, on oysters and pig`s ears Then she mde a dog fat poultice and he wore it night and day Now he`s raised a football team but he plays both home and away. 6 Well it's good for your lungs and it's good for your heart It makes some fellas burp and it makes some women .....hiccup And if you want a contraceptive girls, dog fat's the thing for you Just stick a lump between your knees, it sticks like bloody glue. |
