Excellent Vic - these brought back memories of a wonderful evening. The "Dance of the Demon Daffodils" is one of my JK favourites!

Mike, I wonder if you and Ian were also videoed by Francesco on that night.

I've no idea, Vic - I've got his card somewhere. I might email him and ask...

Hey guys, I really want to see my old mate Ian on YouTube.


(If that's the same Ian ????)


(Much as I love listening to Kirk)

Hi Anglo - yes, it's the very same Ian, who lives just a mile or three from me. I might persuade him to play to my camcorder when I'm next at his house...

Here's St George:

I am St. George. I'm a champion bold,
And over old England my flag I'll unfold.
My sword fights for justice, with truth for my shield,
And when I come riding I never shall yield.

CHORUS: And on my breast, a red red rose,
The flower of old England wherever she grows.

I fought with a dragon and brought it to shame.
I was killed seven times but I still fought again.
I was killed seven times but it did me no ill.
If the battle be true, then I'll fight again still.

In the cause of all freedom, my banner shall wave.
The oppressed and down trodden my sword it shall save.
In the righting of wrongs, I never shall tire.
That the weak become strong is all my desire.

I'll watch o'er your horses, your house and your land,
And if you have none, still your friend I will stand.
I'll strengthen your courage for all you hold dear,
To vanquish all doubt, and banish all fear.

Now be sure in your heart if you call on my name,
For I fight with a fury of fire and flame.
Any lies or deceit, to a cinder I'll burn,
And once you invoke me, I never shall turn.

For I have the power to pierce to the heart.
I strike like the lightning. I can tear you apart.
On hoof-beats of thunder, o'er England I'll ride.
What foe can defy you with me by your side?
