GUEST,Charmion's brother Andrew Lyr/Tune Req: Eton Boating Song (45) RE: Lyr/Tune Req: Eton Boating Song 07 Dec 05


The assembled Mudcatters will, I hope, excuse me for replying to an ancient thread, but 'twas I who taught the Bailey-Bulloch Screw Guns parody to Charmion.

Une précision: the battery was not yet equipped with Blowpipe, we were still had both the 105 mm C1 howitzer and the 40 mm Bofors on a powered twin Oerlikon mount, IOW a "golf bag" battery -- "What iron should I use for this shot, caddy?" The desolate location was "Dundurn" and we were there firing in support of the 2 PPCLI unit battle school in the autumn of 1975.

My favourite parody of the EBS runs:

A team of researcher at Oxford, named Carter and Prentiss and Hall,
Has shown that the lowly hedgehog has never been buggered at all.
But another team working at Cambridge, has incontrovertably shown
That freedom from bugg'ry at Oxford is enjoyed by the hedgehog alone.
