Auld Lang Syne

Bonjour 2006!

Listen to the little guy playing Auld Lang Syne

Just in case you are a karaoke type person I offer the first verse and the chorus so that you can sing along.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

Proverb of the day

"Il ne se tort pas qui à bon hostel va."
(He does not go wrong who goes to a good inn.)

Gay Gordons

Once in the inn you need to kick up your heels so here's a good old tune for you.

As so many of you chose to join in the karaoke singing of Auld Lang Syne, here are some alternative lyrics for this offering.

Aunty Mary had a canary
Up the leg of her draws,
First it farted, then it departed
To a round of applause.

Or perhaps you prefer

Aunty Mary had a canary
In a cage indoors
It whistled and sang
And went off "bang"
And blew the leg off her drawers

There are many other versions but it's useful to have the chorus

Chase me Charlie, Chase me Charlie, Lost the leg of my drawers
Chase me Charlie, Chase me Charlie, Please will you lend me yours?
