Thanks, Robin.

I'll check these out soon. Going outside to sit in the yard for a while, now. Too much time on the computer today already.

Sorry I left the chat room so suddenly. I was planning to say proper goodbyes but someone came to the door.

Oh a piece of my creative writing - don't read this if you get LSD drug flashbacks... :-)

This was originally written in a previous thread for John from Hull, but due to the 'Mudcat Scramble' (hey what a great song title!), I can no longer link direct reliably to the original message in the original thread.

Pot Noodles Can't Be Beat

My wife is wide

My wife is wide, I cannot get o'er
Neither have I wings to fly
But first it bent and then it broke
So did my love prove false to me

I reached my finger into some soft bush
Thinking the fairest flower to find
But not so deep as the love I'm in
I know not if I sink or swim

I pricked my finger to the bone
And left the fairest flower behind
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like the morning dew

or something like that...

My Dodgy Mandolin
(Apologies to Paul Leka!)


Drop your silver in my dodgy mandolin.
Help a poor man fill his pretty dream.
Give me pennies I'll take anything,
Now listen while I play.
My dodgy mandolin.


Watch the jingle jangle start to shine.
Reflections of the music that is mine.
When you toss a coin you'll hear it sing.
Now listen while I play,
My dodgy mandolin.


Drop a dime before I walk away.
Any song you want I'll gladly play.
Money feeds my music machine.
Now listen while I play,
My dodgy mandolin.
