Terry's diction on the Hark The Village Wait was shite!

No wonder those attempting to set down the words by attempting to translate via his Venusian accent have made occasional errors.

I'd have to correct some of the corrections made by Malcolm. My da used to sing this one ...

"Dogs black and yellow, dogs brown and bright" is how I heard it sung

"It was her last ride o'er the hills of Granemore" (night makes no sense)

"In a field of wheat stubble, etc."

The rendition of this which I heard as a boy went "Through hedges and fields, boys, in sport and in fun"

Slan go foill
