Kaneact, try to find The Holland Handkerchief (which I got from Packie Byrne). I have no time at the moment to even Google to see if the words are online (it's not in the DT), and can't remember where the copy that Packie wrote out for me is. I'll try to look later, but in the meantime if anyone finds it, please post.

Packie had a lovely air for it too, which has now gone hazy in my mind. I'm seeing him soon so I'll see if I can get him to sing it for me, and try to note it down if he does (he doesn't really sing anymore). It's a beautiful modal minor-key melody and I THINK Packie said he gave it to Martin Carthy (or someone? Nic Jones?) so maybe Martin/Nic has recorded it. Writing this off the top of my head in a rush so I haven't done any online searching. Worth pursuing, though -
