The "ledgend" I heard was of a dieing boy who was room bound but had a veiw out over the river & sea behond. but with these varius 'versions' It seems more like urban-myths than origins! As to parrodies the local version (which I no-longer pass down the generations, being a guider myself now ;)) goes like this: "Out of my tent flap looking in the night I can see the Guiders Cigerette light, Siently flows the whiskey to the glass, As the guiders have their fun at last, Guiders I would like to be with you, I would like to share your whiskey too, Guiders have you scouters in your beds? Are You planning for nine months ahead???" I have aso heard it sung with the whiskey flowing to the lips, as the guiders show off bums and t....omatoes!!! I will be adding the other versions as exta verses :D Thanks all.
