As far as I know Oor Willie never made it to Australia, but Beano & other comics did. I vaguely remember a girl's comic with the title Judy I've just had a lovely time chasing Oor Wullie & this image makes this a music thread! I copied it to show the 8-16 year old musicians who attend a traditional Australian music workshop I'm involved with as it shows a typical? (pre-radio & TV) family musical evening, tho similar Australian evenings probably didn't include a kilted piper! The younger kids love our vintage one-man-band (washboard with attached bicycle bells, cow bells & horn with perished rubber bulb) so would probably enjoy banging the saucepan, baking dish, cake ring? & kettle instrument. sandra
