Carrying on .........
This road sweeper gloomily pushed his barrow
Through the streets, wide or narrow
Keeping an eye out
For treasures ,no doubt ( to keep the shape Granny)
Which he'll grab with the speed of an arrow!

1st May and the choir sing at Magdalen Tower
A hymn of praise to the Trinity’s power
We celebrate May Day

A hymn of praise to the Trinity’s power
We celebrate May Day
Morris dancing display
And appreciate how all is in flower

Our grandson's just turned twenty-one

Our grandson's just turned twenty-one
Since that age, half a century I've done
The time has flown by

Our grandson's just turned twenty-one
Since that age, half a century I've done
The time has flown by
Since we first heard his cry

Our grandson's just turned twenty-one
Since that age, half a century I've done

Since we first heard his cry

75 years ago this was a great day
Good things were now coming our way
Our lads would come home
Over the wide briny foam
And would hopefully be here to stay
