Subject: Anna Baddley - THANKS FOLKS!
Quite right Liz - Ahhh . . . that's the very chorus (takes me back into it now)

I think there's a verse about some event in the village, a fair or something, and all the other girls having someone to walk with or whatever but Anna goes alone since she doesn't think any of the blokes are worthy of her.

Failry standard folk song stuff, I suppose.

The guy who I heard sing it was a bloke called Pete Tomm who inhabits the Brown Cow folk club at Mansfield and sometimes plays in skiffle/comedy band Kick & Rush.

Anyway, I'd still appreciate all your help tracking down the song - which Mick Peat tape is it on? Where can I get it? etc. etc.

Thanks again folks, and keep searching.
