Very keen to have the tune for 'When there isn't a girl about' as sung by Cyril Barber. It is on Veteran VT106 cassette 'More Comic Songs and Parodies' but I can't get hold of a copy.

Where are you? I have the cassette and I can also sing it but I don't have the means to put it onto a disc at the moment. If you go to our Yorkshire Garland website www.yorkshirefolksong.net and get my contact details off there I could always sing it down the phone for you.

Something along the lines of:

When there isn't a girl about you're oh so lonely,
When there isn't a girl about you're on your only,
Absolutely by yourself,
Nothing to do but play with yourself,
When there isn't a girl about.

Chorus remembered from Llandaff Rugby Club pantomime circa 1969
