Subject: RE: 2025 Obit: Adam McNaughtan
A performance I saw in the People's Palace in Glasgow around 1989, about local government being on the take from building contractors, to the tune of "The Spanish Lady" with the splendid lines

Flat roofs work just fine in Algeria,
Not so well in Hutchesontown.


The punchline was "...it pays to be Frank" after some councillor of the time.

Was that one of Adam's? Has anybody got all of it?
