Noted, Rowan: thanks. You will find that I too rejoice in the 'naval engagement' line & have contrib'd it recently to the below-line thread on 2-line Jokes, inspired to do so by thread on "What You Dance To'..

This Budgie - who he? I ask becoz I used to know a guy by that name in Cambridge, England, nearly 40 years ago, who specialised in 'disobliging' songs & used sometimes to distress some of the more delicately·nurtured at a folk club I ran there at the time. he became a policeman, I recall, in which capacity I met him once at a Cambridge Folk Festival in the 1970s, since when have lost touch with him. Could by any chance be same guy, I wonder?
