Multiple parentage: "May be funny, honey Sure seems strange to me We got seven children And none of them look like me" ("Gonna move to the outskirts of town") BTW "me duck" is a form of address common to the East Midlands of the UK (as "our kid" is to the West Midlands and "chuck" in Lancashire) applied to both sexes. I used to call all females "love" and men,"mate" at home in Birmingham as everyone else did. When I moved away to Wales, I found this was interpreted as an unwelcomed endearment! RtS
