A Bunch of Thyme

does anyone know anything about this song? its in the database but i was wondering if anyone knew any trivia about it that i can dazzle my choir teacher with. he made us sing a three part adaptaion of it at a concert a few years ago. although it sounded wonderfull we all had great big grins on our faces and were watching all the old ladies and the head mistress at the back of the hall! they looked a bit confused when they started to realise what the words were about but we arried on regardless....! anyway, we revived it this evening at choir practice and taught it to all the new members and i wondered if anyone knew anything else about it that i can tell them. (also ive been telling my choir teacher about this site for ages and want to show off a bit so please someone come up with something good for me to prove how great you all are!!)

thanks! love ivy b*
