No, not the Big O, or the Big W. Big H.

I can't get this link to work, neither could I post a workable link in the Publications section. Has technology advanced beyond my grasp yet again or is this a common problem? So, I don't know what Roy Harper song you've posted, David, but my favourite is When An Old Cricketer Leaves The Crease.
Back in the early 70s my then girlfriend and I went to see Roy Harper at Birmingham Town Hall. He came out with this interminable tale about catching a life-threatening illness from a sheep. I'm afraid I found it more funny than tragic and my girlfriend never spoke to me again.

I'm out of faith and in my cups
I contemplate such bitter stuff.

Alternatively highlight and right click David's link to get open link option.Tried that, mac. Don't work. Tells me there's no results. Used to be able to just click on the link and voila. What's happened?
The song David posted is the Cricketer song then, is it?

But how did you do that, Mac? There used to be a working YouTube app (or whatever) here, but it don't work no more.

Great song,David!
I'm not that well acquainted with Mr Harper,tbh - so I can just simply say it's the best one of his that I've heard.
When Shane Warne and Glen McGrath retired I expect you could almost hear the sighs of relief from opposing batsmen.
It will be the same for Jimmy Anderson when he calls it a day..
What's the equivalent of " finally leaves the crease" for a bowler,I wonder? "-puts his cap back on for the last time"?

Instead of just sitting on the fence - why not stand in the middle of the road?
