Being Friday, 3rd of February, 2012 ...

Dogsbody accepted the blame for everything this evening – even the cold weather!

We began music in a small gathering at just after 8.15pm.
(Actually, the hall clock is 2 minutes fast.)
Once Dogsbody’s starting turn was over the populus swelled to 14 thermally-clad humanoids and a stuffed penguin.

If you weren’t there, you missed an evening that included several ‘Nancy’ (*) songs:

William Stone: Colin

Legend in my Time: Paul

Never Again: Lynda

Rosin the Beau: Roland & Mick

In the Pines: Angela & Paul

Breathing Air: Dave

Angel of no Mercy: Les

The Ridings/Ashover Meet: Lorna

Blues in E: Mick

*Banks of the Nile: Roger

If I were a King: Tony

*Adieu Sweet Lovely Nancy: Nigel

The Saucy Sailor: Colin

I Wish I was 18 Again: Paul

Boot-Sale Blues: Dave

Psalm 23: Tony

Don't Tell me You're not in Love: Les

Trink, Trink ... and something I can't pronounce: Lorna

Rambling Pitchfork: Mick

Things about going my way: Roger

*Farewell my Lovely Nancy: Nigel

Don't Send my Mother to Prison: Ken

Herb in my Father's Garden: Mave

Here's a Health to the Company: Colin

Both Sides Now: Paul

Banks of the Ohio: Lynda & Paul

Bold Princess Royal: Roland

Are You Missing Me: Angela & Paul

Barges: Dave

Baby's in Black: Les

Fairy Lullaby: Lorna

Rag-Picking: Mick

Dimming of the Day: Roger

*Pleasant and Delightful: Nigel & full cast 

Angela’s song, ‘In the Pines’, was not about Nancy.

Instead, being about a very long train, it had Dogsbody in raptures again.

The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line ...

Somewhere in the above list, Angela sang Clinch Mountain Home, accompanied by Roland, Paul and much yodelling, but Dogsbody forgot to write it down.
That's because he became overwhelmed when somebody suggested it was about a Swiss train ...

... but it wasn't!

Everyone who craved exposure was exposed - without removing clothes.
Most of us got three opportunities, and music finished at 11.00pm precisely.

See ... it can be done!
