Sorry to hear about your health issues, but pleased to see you seem to be well enough to ‘play’ with the S8.

And “the poor S8 sat standing ...” reminded me of a nonsense poem that my (late) father used to recite:

If was Christmas Day in the workhouse
And the snow was raining fast
A bare-footed girl with clogs on
Stood sitting on the grass

A happy memory - thankyou!

Anyone know this poem - there are other verses. I recall one of them:

I went to the pictures tomorrow
And took a front seat at the back
Then fell from the pit to the gallery
And broke a front bone in my back.
