Lindy LouBit late, And I am sure that you have spotted same but consider "hymns and Aria's
" We sang "Cwm Rhondda" and "Delila" and they sounded just the same
Saturday was Sunday, Hymns came on a tray
Only half remembered, I wonder What H'll say"Or again, take the "Trip to Twickenham" ( Well You did )
"So we give him that old bottle
That once held bitter Ale
He started singing "Hymns and Arias", "Land of my Fathers","Ar hud y nos(all through the night)"For Non SWELCH Catters the rest of the Story is not fit for tender ears
It refers to the lack of Public Toilets at Twickenham, Head Quarters of the English Rugby Union, and how the lads releaved themselves into empty beer bottles
and passed them off as beer to wandering English fans.To CAMRA members - it prooved the average English upper Class twit can't tell the difference between P*ss and Watneys.
Sorry, 5 pints of Brains S.A.and a shot of "Pussers" have removed my inhibitions.
Thank God it's Friday.
On a more serious note "Willie MacBrides Reply" (DT) takes a nice swipe at " The band Played Walsing Matilda", also by Eric Bogle.
In the spirit of the forum, a pint, if you drink near Cardiff (dialect Kairdif) Or a "Virtual Pint" if you don't live, or visit nearby, to the first Catter to identify the line(s)
