Subject: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: jacqui.c Date: 26 Nov 03 - 08:20 AM On this auspicious occasion I was going to get everybody to serenade you tonight with Happy Birthday. You'll just have to accept that all of us out here are singing this to you anyway. Imagine the wonderful sound that would make! Take it easy on the Marmite! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: greg stephens Date: 26 Nov 03 - 12:50 PM Is the reference to marmite an indication that this is directed to the estimable Mr McGrath from Harlow?.Well, happy birthday indeed. Kevin. |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: Amos Date: 26 Nov 03 - 01:12 PM McGrath from Harlow?? I thought you quit that dastardly birthday routine, Kevin!!! So now we have to piss Joe off just to kowtow to your obsessive fixation on chronology? We'd better get Spaw in here to put some graffitti or "Kiss My Ass" stickers onto this thread pronto! Why do you keep doing this, McGrath? Surely you've learned by now that it is all a ruse? :>) Well done anyway. Keep on keeping on! A |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 26 Nov 03 - 02:57 PM That's nice of people. And a happy birthday to Pixie. (And Bill Sables bles too, who's another one born today. And another one, a few years earlier, was Charles Schulz, creator of Peanuts, so that's not bad. Here's a song I wrote once about time, which seems appropriate for a birthday: Well, my feet were getting weary, and the hour was getting late, so I sat down by the side of the road and I tried to concentrate, and I knew that I was not alone, but I did not know for why - then the flowers beside the side of the road they looked me in the eye. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. I was tired, so tired, I was tired as a man can be, and the flowers beside the side of the road looked just as tired as me. But I heard a ringing in my head, and I heard a singing sound, and the flowers beside the side of the road were singing right along. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. Well, life can teach you wisdom, Till you know just where you're at, Yes, life can teach you many things, But there's more to life than that. There's singing and there's dancing, and there's whiskey in the glass, and flowers beside the side of the road to see you as you pass. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. Time alone will tell, time will have its way, but the flowers beside the side of the road, they bloom for just today. |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: Herga Kitty Date: 26 Nov 03 - 07:01 PM New, John? No, John, no John no. Kevin McGrath has been contributing to Mudcat and the folk scene generally for quite a while. Some people have marble memorials, but Kevin's will be Marmite. Kitty |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: Murray MacLeod Date: 26 Nov 03 - 07:28 PM New, John? No, John, no John no. Very good, Kitty. John, McGrath of Harlow is the nearest thing Mudcat has to an Happy Birthday, Kevin, and if my calculations are correct a further cause for celebration is that you will be able to pick up a cheque from the Post Office each week from now on, am I right ? Or maybe they pay cash .... |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: Murray MacLeod Date: 26 Nov 03 - 07:31 PM New, John? No, John, no John no. Very good, Kitty. John, McGrath of Harlow is the nearest thing Mudcat has to an eminence grise. Amos is the next nearest equivalent. Happy Birthday, Kevin, and if my calculations are correct a further cause for celebration is that you will be able to pick up a cheque from the Post Office each week from now on, am I right ? Or maybe they pay cash .... |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 26 Nov 03 - 07:36 PM Yes, indeed, Murray. eminence grise? It's some time since my hair was grey... |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday Kevin From: Herga Kitty Date: 26 Nov 03 - 08:03 PM Comparisons with 17th C French Cardinals are probably invidious, and possibly odorous. I'd guess that Kevin's blanched hair now symbolises a 2nd childhood of innocence.... But it's not his birthday any more, so that's probably the end of that thread. Kitty |
