Thank you Sandra - that's a powerful and moving piece (even without the visuals). Too dark for my audience, though. My station, Chichester Hospital Radio, broadcasts in the main to the patients, staff and visitors to the hospital, where we try and cheer them up, or at least take them out of themselves. I'm tempted to learn the song and perform it at my local folk clubs come November. I'll look into Dingo's Breakfast's other material. I worked in Sydney for 3 weeks back in 1990, and had a few days there in 2015. Had domestic circumstances not prevented me, I would have thought seriously about moving out there (despite my uncle having been killed by a burglar while living in Sydney, he having emigrated around 1955).
