Dreadlock Holiday.



And in a longest listener generated thematically linked sequence of musically linked items on the radio kind of vibe...


Wasn't I lucky, wouldn't it be loverly? (where'd ya go?)
Send us all cards, have a laying-in on Sunday (where'd ya go?)
I was there for two weeks, so how come I never tell, now? (where'd ya go?)
That natty dread drink at the Sheraton hotel, yeah (where'd ya go?)

T'was in deed Dreadlock Holiday.

Those lyrics of yours aren't ringing any bells for me yet though.

Oooh, there's a guilty conscience. I just assumed he was referring to the age of the songs.:emoticon-0131-angel

Actually talking of a guilty conscience, for A levels rather than GCEs, using a very fine Rotring pen I hand wrote a full extra page on the blank last page of the maths tables book with all of the formulas we were meant to remember. It worked very well...

Red Cadillac and a black mustache
Rings on my fingers that sparkle and flash
 
I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush...

Mrs BMB, one for the memory for our older supporters on here when watching the Tigers was a pleasure and Bunkers hill was just a hill. Bet Filey would recognize it, as it is a line from "The Boothferry Roar." After the team with Jock Davidson, Virgo Jensen, Meens and Mellor and of course Billy Bly and the great Raich Carter and the rest ran out and we sang "Tiger Rag" , we would sing this during the game. If you want to hear the Boothferry roar, come along to Boothferry Park. See Raich Carter lead the way, Good old Tigers people would say, and so on. Makes one think how many names in the present team will be remembered seventy years on now.

Surprising that it has taken so long but as you say it would have been sung at the ground and remembered by few on here. Certainly CANADATIGER,yourself, Dr Stanley, my husband, with Filey perhaps being too young in the "Cartermania" era.
