The Blandford Fly by David England
She was bitten by the Blandford fly,
I dont know why, they didn’t bite I,
On her legs and in her hair,
Even places I wouldn’t dare,
Get the ointment she did cry,
My hopes did run high,
Where she was bitten by the Blandford fly,
I dont know why they didn’t bite I,
But thank the Lord for the Blandford fly.

Wassailing Time, Irene Thomas 1992
On vrosty nights near Christmas,
We all went out t’ zing,
“While Shepherds watched” – “The Vust Noel,”
“Y’ere we’m cum wassailing”.
We huddled een the doorways,
Tinglin’ wi’ the cowld,
But meakin’ zure we zung they carols,
Jist like days of wold!
Oone pleace we always went to,
Were down t’ Tanyard Varm,
Two Carols zung outside the door,
An’oone eenzide in’t waarm.
The sweet wold lady standing’…
