10 Nov 00 - 05:25 AM (#337718) Subject: Concerning 'Hard Times' verses From: Auxiris To all of you who have been waiting all these long & weary months for some kind of news about the two controversial verses to "Hard Times Come Again No More" that I posted in March, I am sorry to say that as of yet, I've no word from Fiona Fraser to whom I wrote at the time. I assume that she is a very busy person, is no doubt constantly on the road and probably has lots more interesting things to do than satisfy our curiosity. Now, as the busiest part of the festival season draws to a close, I can write to her again if you wish or perhaps if someone who visits the Mudcat knows her personally, they know of a more efficient way to contact her than the admittedly antiquated snail mail letter. Anyone? che |

10 Nov 00 - 10:08 PM (#338422) Subject: RE: Concerning 'Hard Times' verses From: Malcolm Douglas The original thread is here: Lyr Add: 2 Verses of "Hard Times" Please do try again if you feel like it; I for one would like to know the answer... Malcolm |
11 Nov 00 - 04:27 AM (#338508) Subject: RE: Concerning 'Hard Times' verses From: Auxiris Hi, Malcolm. . . yes, I well remember the original thread. You're the only other person so far who still seems to be interested, but that makes two of us, so all right, you're on, I'll write her another letter. After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained and it only costs a little time and a stamp. Can't guarantee results as I said before, but will keep you posted. cheers, Aux
