hildajenniJ Thu 10-Dec-15 17:01:21

Do you want the next go wot? While I wash up my lunch dishes! tchblush

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 17:12:50

Ok!
I just can't stand it
Each lonely day,s a little bit longer

graninthemist Thu 10-Dec-15 17:43:51

Why are you asking hard questions when my brain's a mush? I'll try to find the CD.,

hildajenniJ Thu 10-Dec-15 17:55:54

Is it Glen Campbell's "Honey come back". I can here the tune in my head but can't remember many of the words?

graninthemist Thu 10-Dec-15 18:17:32

Lindisfarne is "Meet Me On The Corner". The big bosomed lady was in " You're In My Heart". I've only just stumbled on this thread - so apologies if these questions have already been answered.

graninthemist Thu 10-Dec-15 18:26:32

Yes, it is Honey Come Back. I love music and lyrics. Anyone for poetry?

Ana Thu 10-Dec-15 18:28:01

You could start your own thread for poetry, *graninthemist! tchsmile

I'd be no good at it, for a start...

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:00:46

Yes, it was Honey Come Back. He had such a lovely voice (for an ugly geezer!)

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:06:53

My favourite piece of poetry is
"Unhand me, grey beard loon! Ha ha ha !

Ana Thu 10-Dec-15 19:16:32

Aww, I never thought he was ugly... sad

Like the pome though!

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:19:28

Do you know what poem it's from???? You must have done it at school v e r y l o n g poem.

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:21:47

Resembled an exploded ar__hole.

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:30:38

Sorry, me descending into vulgarity and flippancy.

Ana Thu 10-Dec-15 19:38:48

No, don't think we did it at school. I only remember Hiawatha...

Told you I'd be no good at a poetry-guessing game.

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 19:47:59

It is "The Ancient Mariner"
I don't know any others, though! (Except tiger, tiger burning bright)

hildajenniJ Thu 10-Dec-15 20:33:31

Here's my next line of a song:

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Pickin' me a boquet of dogwood flowers.

graninthemist Thu 10-Dec-15 22:17:30

Darius Rucker, "Wagon Wheel". Wish I could drive for 17 hours before reaching the coast. I could throw a stone into the sea - far too much exposure to horrid weather.

rosesarered Thu 10-Dec-15 23:26:11

Never 'eard of it!

rosesarered Thu 10-Dec-15 23:29:11

wot I thought the grey beard loon may be Gandalf.tchgrin I remember doing The Ancient Mariner at school, a thousand slimy things and so on ( and on and on) Coleridge must have been off on one his many drug filled binges.

wotanuisanceABC123 Thu 10-Dec-15 23:58:45

Oh, I didn't know he was a druggie! Nor any drop to drink!

hildajenniJ Fri 11-Dec-15 08:21:18

All in a hot and copper sky
The bloody sun at noon
Right above the mast did stand
No bigger than the moon.

Don't start me off on poetry, you'll never here the end of it!tchgrin

Yes Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker, but I was thinking of the version by Old Crow Medicine Show. My DS introduced me to them!

wotanuisanceABC123 Fri 11-Dec-15 18:20:13

Oh, I'm going to put a clue forward because I'm fed up with game getting stuck
Mine are not obscure.

wotanuisanceABC123 Fri 11-Dec-15 18:44:26

Oh, bug_er, I can't think of one now!

wotanuisanceABC123 Fri 11-Dec-15 18:45:11

Day after day
