Silly song season

The boys have had the Comic Relief version of 500 miles on iTunes repeat this past week. Sweet memories of PhD days in Edinburgh but my favourite Proclaimers song was always Letter from America.

Blackheath no more, Irvine no more, Lochaber no more…

My father is London born and bred but always self-identifies as Scots, raised by exiles, evacuated briefly to Perthshire during the war, the loss inherited epigenetically.


And at the other end of the emo scale I’ve also fallen in love with Natasha Beddington’s latest I wanna have your babies

I’m in a big, big, big, big ocean.
In a tiny little boat


It’s the alternative ending to Children of Men! The one for dancing around in pink pyjamas to.

I can tell the difference between margarine and butter!
I can say Seskatchawan without starting to stutter!
