Introduction - Purloining tunes and writing parodies are time-honoured processes, so I refuse to apologise.
P.S. Guitar chords symbols should never be received as holy writ.
P.P.S. Never bet odds on, never run up steps and never eat pies at cancelled race meetings.

Both My Shout! and the 1989 Maleny rehash My Shout Again! print one of my photographs, of a bloke with a brusht-back haircut and a snazzy sports coat thrown over his shoulder waiting disconsolately on a railway station bench, with an "Erskineville" sign behind him. I guess that obvious temptation is to put it against Bill from Erskineville, but it was intended to go with John's Train to Guildford song - especially the line:
I'm in my good gear, and I'm right off the beer,
And at Guildford, they say there's a job. (post by Bob Bolton on Mudcat Cafe)
