Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Bill Sables
Ye gods - we're contemporaries (well all but two months).

"1946, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for men with beards
With heads full of songs
Who righted all wrongs
And drank a lot of good beer
In pubs and clubs far and near
Yes, it was a very good year!

Or, as our Mums probably sang.

"You're back from the war
So take off your demob suit
Take off your demob suit and get into bed!
It's time to make up for the years that we've wasted
This time next year we'll have a cot by the bed!
Cot by the bed, Nonny, Nonny, cot by the bed
This time next year we'll have a cot by the bed!

Happy Birthday, Bill - and many more to come!

Alan
