"Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack.

[Bbbananas]

..is it true what mammy said, you won't come back, oh no, no...."

I woke up last night at 2 a.m. singing this on the way to the loo. Why? I wasn't dreaming of grocers or anyone called Jack. I haven't heard the song for decades. Isn't the human brain strange and fascinating sometimes? I am enthralled and wondered by the workings of the brain.

I shall be singing that song for the rest of the day now. Was it from Excerpt of a teenage opera or some such thing, late 60's/early 70's?

I am not now, nor have I ever been a Grocer..............

And, yes it was. :o)

Keith West - Excerpt From a Teenage Opera about 1968/9 I think

all that random stuff is still subconsciously locked into your brain!

last saturday morning the music from Beethovan's 7th Symphony was going through my head,I haven't heard it for quite a while. When we were having lunch my son-in law asked if I would like to join my daughter & himself to go & see the movie ''The King's Speech'' in a most moving part the background music is the 2nd movement of the 7th symphony.( is that a coincident or what ?)

Maybe I will pop in the grocer's on the way home, bump into a Jack and find my life soulmate....

Or maybe I will, on the way home from the grocer's, have a puncture and have to use a jack to change the wheel....
