G'day all,

We must be keeping different company. Last week we had a thread looking for some Irish songs ... including 'The Gentle Maiden' and I set a cat among the pigeons by innocently remarking that my Grandfather, from Manchester way had always thought it was a Mancunian song. (Is the test of a good song that you think your lot own it?.)

Anyway, that time caused great splutterings from the Irish contingent ... presumably they are asleep at the moment.

Regards,

Bob Bolton
