Thanks for the Sleepytoon info, Shonagh and LJC. And I'm very impressed Shonagh that you got into it enough to check out the location. I guess the Auld Country is full of song locations--one could certainly spend a whole vacation visiting themThink I'll put the song back on the set list.

PS If you ever see Cilla Fisher sing Sleepytoon, she emphasizes the rude part at the end by pausing at the end of the line "to wipe his snottery nose" and dragging her arm across her nose with appropriate sound effects...sort of Music Hall Crude. (At least she did it in Ottawa)
sing airy airy airy-ahdi airy airity noo.
