Little boys do not like being chewed

A dull Monday, brightened by a burst of sunshine, a pot of peppermint tea and Natalie Merchant working her musical magic on a collection of 19th century poems. Make sure you watch to the end, when she gives the stuffed shirts in the audience a lesson in how to clap in time.

    Have Natalie Merchant's double CD and "Little boys do not like being chewed' is one of my favourites.

    Isn't Natalie Merchant wonderful. I love this..went to the Mighty Ape and ordered it. We are both having a musical day. Did you catch Greta Bradman..grand daughter of Don the cricketer, on Kathryn Ryan this morning?

    Hello ladies, thanks for stopping by. I also recommend Natalie's version of Come Take A Trip In My Airship! (Joan, please note exclamation mark(s)!)
