Re: Silly British Songs...
I should I suppose. I hereby ban myself from all Covid-19 related threads and anything to do with the USA and that malodorous moron Trump, lest this following silly, but not British, song becomes apposite in my case...

Of course there was the classic The Who song about another Lily... (quite silly, but not so much as Lily the Pink...)

Re: Silly British Songs...
Is that Mrs Mills on the piano?
Great song...
Here she is, even if it wasn't her doing the Mouldy Old Dough piano...
Serious, not silly, look at Mr Mill's stuff... she was a wonderful musician...

Post #8 - The Wurzels. I used to live in Nailsea (Somerset) in the late 60's and my local was the Royal Oak which was where Adge Cutler and The Wurzels drank and did their early performances at that time. Sadly a few years later Adge Cutler died when he fell asleep at the wheel of his car when returning from a gig.

Didn't Dickie Valentine do the same on the Heads of the Valleys road in S. Wales?
