Oh so wrong oh so wrong
No one scoring and there's
Too much chat between each throw
Worse than this though is when
Cheers are raised up for a bull
Granted, bull's a double and an out
But I know that they don't know
Therefore I propose no soap darts
Is your child hyperactive or is he perhaps a twat
Sometimes I like to watch wave rage down at Fistral beach
Last Ash Wednesday I had tantric sex and it was shit
Next Ash Wednesday I might strive to lick my elbow
Try in vain
For they say
Few succeed
I wrote to the Horse & Hound
To gloat over what I'd done
I'd stored their magazine
In a data retrieval system
Well let's face it what are they going to do
It's not as if they know where I live
And anyway I cut the caper back in 1984
Oh broken matrons! Oh joyless beds!
For those whose souls the iron has entered
And if I get to Heaven's Gate
I'll doubtless have to wait
While St Peter investigates
The inevitable asterisk
The inside of a Halex 3-star table tennis ball
Smells much like you'd expect it to

...stored their magazine in a data-retrieval system It was a common copyright warning on magazines such as "The contents of this magazine, either in whole or part, may not be reproduced, stored in a data retrieval system...blah, blah, blah." In 1984, of course, few people had access to such a system.

Hi Chris
I've just done a google search, and lo and behold it's a Thomas Hardy quote! (Nigel's into Hardy, isn't he?)
"In a November 1895 letter, Hardy wrote to Gosse: 'As for the story itself, it is really sent out to those into whose souls the iron has entered..."
So:
Oh broken matrons! Oh joyless beds!
For those whose souls the iron has entered
There. Feel better now!
Cheers,
Sean
Thanks Sean! That line has been bugging me for ages.
Now you better let Chris Rand know as I think you intended to email him in the first place!
Cheers.
No problem, Eric.
No, it was you I intended to e-mail - just got your name wrong!
Does anyone know the word/s in the chorus of I Trog after "'Cause I'm a trog/and I've got....." It really bugs me!
Ta,
Sean
Haha, No problem Sean.
Not sure either about the I, Trog chorus line....sounds like "got my tidies" but not sure if that makes sense.
