but simply wondered asked for the Mitchell Johnson song to make his happiness complete. Here are the Barmies, led from the field by KP with aforesaid song, words as follows...
He bowls to the left
He bowls to the right
But that Mitchell Johnson
His bowling is shite
Pleasing in its simplicity, I am sure all will agree. The rabbit is coming to the conclusion that the mockery is all getting a bit much. What for example can comedian Bill Bailey mean by the following?
'Let's not mention the Ashes and the 3 innings defeats. It would be unseemly to mention the 3 innings defeats, in the Ashes, 3 - 1'
The rabbit can only concur. Former England captain Michael Vaughan seems to have plans on becoming a comedian himself. I quote...
What do you call an Australian with a bottle of champagne? A waiter.
What do you call an Australian with 100 runs to his name? A bowler.
What do you call an Australian who can hold a catch? A fisherman.
One can but tut at this gloating and move on.
On a completely different topic, the rabbit read an article today about Sandy Denny and was put in mind of her exquisite song Who Knows Where The Time Goes? Amazingly, she wrote this song aged 20. She died of a brain haemorrhage after falling down stairs aged 31 in 1978. Here is the original demo of this song from Sandy Denny/Fairport Convention.

a happy man; truly you are the rabbit that keeps on giving! my eternal thanks
Haha
Gloating - it feels good. :)
A sweet, sweet victory.
Worth savouring.
Who knows where the time goes was on of Sandy Denny's signature pieces. I thought the version she did with the Strawbs was the first version of this. It seems she did with with almost everyone she played with (one exception Led Zeppelin).
Given I'm a fan of hers, I wish you had cited the article in question.
Was it the Guardian Article about the reissue of some of her recordings?
Mahal - Wombat?
SW - We do our humble best...
Sybil/DHG - Indeed. Most satisfactory...
Laci - Yuppety! That was the article although I read the print version. They usually tweak it for online version.
An astonishing piece of work for a 20 year old. And RT was even younger when he wrote Meet on the Ledge - how much talent can you have in one band?
