Should be possible to trace it over this weekend in Spanish Point - unless you were hoping to have learned it by then?! See you Friday Regards |

"unless you were hoping to have learned it by then?!" Me sing a sporting song; I'd rather watch an egg boil!!! Jim Carroll |

This is something these Irish people do, probably because their nights are too long and their weather too depressing. You're better than that. Don't do it. ;-) -Joe- |

01 Nov 12 - 06:14 AM (#3429237) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Jogger From Clare From: Jim Carroll "Jim, are you sure of the title? " That's the title I was given (though originally my neighbour asked for 'The Codger from Clare") It's quite possibly a local, recently composed song which hasn't hit the streets yet - I'll get some more details at the weekend. Thanks for the thought Joe: Don't they jog in the states? Seems to me every time I see a film featuring Central Park there's a poor afflicted soul.... though I understand they think they might have found a cure! Thanks for the thought folks Jim Carroll PS Spent the weekend at the very enjoyable Roscommon Singing Weekend at Knockroghery which ended with a long session of humorous songs - heard some gems including an hilarious send up of 'Last Thing on my Mind'. Missed 'The Man Who Shot Danny Boy in the Fields of Athenry' by the same singer. |

If you need any more educating re Ireland Joe do let me know! |
