I've used this site a few times looking for answers to Mudcat queries ('brown ale and arrers' and most recently the Jack Warner? one - unsuccessfully each time so far), but it is a great site with all the well-known Marriot Edgar/Stanley Holloway monologues, a lot of Billy Bennett and a host of other (mainly British) monologues, up to present day writers. It includes some humorous songs too. As stated above, an excellent resource.

Thanks for posting this link. We use a variety of poems and odes and monologues and the like, mostly to give our singer a break, and it's been our experience that our audiences really enjoy the silly and suggestive banter. There's a good bit of material at the site that seems adaptable to many situations.

I nearly got lost in there!,,a really great place to play.

(The version of "Ain't it grand to be bloomin'/bloody well Dead" here is much longer than the 'sung' version I have heard, and to me has better lines...is this the original?)

There was a publication (??) called the "North Country Bible," which was the alleged source for Three Ha'pence a Foot and other biblical adventures. One was about Moses (driving his dumper on the pyramid building site) and I've only ever heard it once.

Does anybody know it?

The threatened tenth plague of Egypt, by the way, was that all the Guinness would go flat.
