Can't see it anywhere on the page? For that matter, I can't see any of your recorded versions on any of your pages? Am I being stupid and missing a really obvious link or something?Miltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08900038133438910241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999226515644223110.post-65456561878629258682012-03-08T01:41:19.934+00:002012-03-08T01:41:19.934+00:00Hello to All,

I'd be happy to make additional photocopies for you if you wish, although I am not anywhere near the Wirral at present, so it would have to wait a couple of months until I'm back up Merseyside-wayrobotforadayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05302954722308521390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999226515644223110.post-4195534926825571492012-03-02T21:45:58.506+00:002012-03-02T21:45:58.506+00:00Hi Matthew and robotforaday, Dorothy Dearnley was ...Hi Matthew and robotforaday, Dorothy Dearnley was my grandmother and she unfortunately passed away in 2002. I am looking to get a copy of Seven Cheshire Folk Songs and was wondering if you would be able to help me with that? How can I contact you?

Martin Sellers observed that the tune which I personally have been using is 'And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda'! Nothing to do with Carthy at all!<br /><br />MatthewMatthew Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167414190233864155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999226515644223110.post-26664074696667037572011-07-15T16:04:22.384+01:002011-07-15T16:04:22.384+01:00Hi Matthew, don't know if you'll get this ...Hi Matthew, don't know if you'll get this (i.e. if you'll get an alert about this response), but I think you sent me some comments for correction of the above at mudcat; obviously I can't access my PMs there at the moment because it's all been locked, so I'm afraid I don't know what you suggested.
