Hello Geoff

Doggerel? Well, I'd known it for ever. Old Woman Tossed Up In A Blanket is a nursery rhyme, innit?
Barry sings it to the tune of Lily/Lilli/Lili whatever.
I suppose you'd better ask Ashley why he thought it was a good idea.
Good grief, are we going to have peeps questioning Who's The Fool Now? because it's doggerel?
Yeah, it is but . . . so what?
Most of what is written here is equally so . . .
