Morning all.
Off to Spain with choir in 45 mins.
Better throw some food and water at the budgies or i'll be in trouble with them when I get home.
Today's title is one of the pieces we're singing (it's actually a Christmas carol but what the heck! We're singing it in Spanish!!)
Back at crack of dawn on Tuesday.

19 today going on about 7
little s*d's just dropped out of his second uni since September
also Aged D would have been 85 today
he was always proud to have been born on May Day
my choice for today would have been this mad wriggle by Sir Thomas Morley
Now is the month of Maying, when merry lads are playing! Fa la la la la!
Each with his bonny lass, a-dancing on the grass, fa la la la la!
The Spring, clad all in gladness, doth laugh at Winter's sadness! Fa la la la la!
And to the bagpipes’ sound, the nymphs tread out the ground! Fa la la la la!
Fie! Then why sit we musing, youth’s sweet delight refusing? Fa la la la la!
Say, dainty nymphs and speak! Shall we play barley break? Fa la la la la!
there's a lot more Fa la la la las! when you snig it
I once wrote to grauniad's N&Q column to ask how you play barley break
can't remember the answer
but of course it's a euphemism
as in "shall we play doctors and nurses"
off to
w**k
shop
pick up laundry
vote
won't be long
lol
lovely thread
happy landings Parddu

*bounce*
Morning all
Have a great trip Parrdu
((((Yeo))))
Morning
In the drama group we used to sing a song (from Camelot I think) that had a line that went "It's May! It's May! The lusty month of May". Our cleanest alternative version was "It's May! It's May! That busty lass called May".
I leave you to think what the others were.
Wonderful, wonderful day in the office today. Colleagues are all out manning polling stations and the like, so I don't have to suffer Jeremy Vine or whatever other tat is on Radio 2 this afternoon. Pass the Housemartins CDs someone.
Although...while listening to Stuart Maconie last night I heard Vampire Weekend for the first time. I can feel a purchase coming on.
> Shall we play barley break?
I wonder if Carl knows about this euphemism?
told you I wouldn't be long
tho' my day's w**k isn't yet done
tbh Fllose in 'Month of Maying' we didn't always snig 'a-dancing' in the second line
I believe I have a recording of Now is the month of Maying performed by Eynesbury Giant.
Not to be confused with Sainsbury's giant.
bum bum po po knickers
I think they sing
Each with his bonny lass, all on the greeny grass
phew
cheat?
me?
Perhaps I should suggest that ditty for the choir I'm in
<smiles>
I knew that Teapot costume would come in handy
sounds bliss flr
pity you have to be poorly to qualify
here's my handle here's...
Oh I say what a big spout you have
