Outdoor singaround was great and I even managed to get back home on public transport - after being waylaid once or twice but that's another story...;-) If anyone can tell me where the concetinia playing garden gnome behind the bar at the Ducie came from I would be very grateful. I asked at the bar and the barmaid did not know. Cheers DtG |

08 Apr 02 - 06:15 PM (#685745) Subject: RE: Happy Silver Wedding to SUEvG - 8 Pints From: Matthew Edwards Many thanks for a memorable night, Sue and Bob, and congratulations on the occasion. After the ball... 'Twas the week after Easter in Wythenshawe Hall, Four and twenty kings and queens went to dance at the Ball. High King Dave came rambling in, and stumbled over a chair, He tumbled over Anne Boleyn, and her head flew through the air. Saint George drew his mighty sword, but couldn't find a dragon, Instead he gored a noble lord, and drank another flagon. Harold fell down and broke his crown, till it was flat and narrow, William picked it up and said, "Keep your eye upon that arrow!" They were dancing in the hall, and drinking in the salon, And many a glass was raised that night to Bob and Sue van Gaalen. We cast sorrows away, and danced 'Strip the willow', Gathered in a circle of friends until heads hit the pillow. |
