Awful label or not, at 11.7% I'm sorry to have missed the Cripple Dick experience!<br /><br />There's a Cornish folk song about ploughing with oxen which a friend of mine sings. Researching it out of curiosity, I discovered that my friend was omitting the second verse. I can't imagine why...<br /><br /><i>Then it's O my little ploughboy, come awaken in the morn<br />For the cock upon the dunghill is a-blowing up his horn<br />Soon the sun above Brown Willy his yellow face will show<br />And it's hasten to the linney, yoke the oxen to the plough</i><br /><br />Innocent times.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07009879034507926661noreply@blogger.com
