I went to Australia in '51. Also through Suez.

Love the songs (apart from the tenet of yours, John - is it supposed to resemble Zager and Evans 2525?).

Snail, many many many people (particularly horse definitioners) here seem to think (or at least say) that I somehow disapprove of non-54-folk   music or that I think people should only sing '54 songs, or that I say that '54 songs should only be sung in the manners in which they were originally (whatever that means) were sung. Of course I don't and the '54 definition with reasonable specificity allows for the folk process (ie change in the songs) and evolution of the styles of songs.

I hope I have laid that ghost, and may the japing continue.
