Developing the set list
 Ok! So what have we got?

Own songs

Under The Patio - "Ma and Pa were getting old...."

In the Woods (Like Bear Grylls) - "To be out in the fresh air is all I desire..."

Work In Progress - Written for my nephew's wedding. It's a song about the nature of marriage and enduring relationships.

The End is Nigh - Written in response to the death cult prediction of the world ending 20th December 2012. What do you mean it didn't? Since then, thre have been at least four more EOW dates that have passed by.

Dance With Me Tonight - A song about intimacy, I sang this as the first dance for my daughter's wedding. It's a very special song for me now.

The Knife Grinder - "I travel the highways and byeways and lanes.. - My version of an old folk song that I heard, but couldn't find. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Aesop's Fables - One of the books of my childhood.

Setting The Tappets - A slightly ambiguous love song. "Tickle those carbs 'til my fingers are wet" refers to the priming of the monobloc carburetors.

Ashley Madison - Following the hacking of internet dating site Ashley Maddison.

Sugar Love - Careers advice for young women? Perhaps not.

Too Posh to Wash - Nurses in our NHS are deserving of more support.

Lonley Man Blues -

Every Cloud -

Simple Life-

Mouldy Brown Bread and Cheese - A miserable song that just gets worse and worse. It was inspired by arriving home late one night, cold, hungry and tired, and finding nothing in the fridge to eat except some old cheese, and nothing to eat it with except a half eaten packet of crumpets that were going mouldy. I tried to imagine who else would be glad of it.

Facebook "Oh Facebook! Thou really art the thief of time"

Midlife Crisis - " I'm having a midlife crisis...."

Don't Start! - Just finished the lyrics, got to work the melody and chords out.
