Ah - 'Whale Meat again', culinary delicacy of the era.
Bless 'em All (Well, not exactly BLESS, something more earthy) was a bawdy pre WWI soldiers song, but cleaned up and recorded during WW2.
We already have these, and Tipperary. But keep then coming. We will look into 'Lay Down Your Arms'. I don't think Mrs Pavane would find Noel Coward songs suitable in style, though, good as they are.
