I am afraid Gitika is indisposed tonight due to a bit of an accident at the zoo today. So it is down to her dear Grandma to take the stage -we found this on a cassette and only just transferred into an Mp3. Grandma Jane was born in December 1899.
We have no idea when this was recorded, but I think it was soon after cassettes were invented! 40 or 50 years old! It is a poem called the burglar. Grandma was from Wigan, Lancashire. Hope you enjoy it. Mr P. x x x

SONG OF THE DAY- Albert and the Lion -Stanley Holloway
If you have never heard this you have to listen to it all! It was Grandma’s most popular recitation. Might explained what happened to Mrs. P today.
Gitika’s grandma is a star! But what of poor Gitika? Who will teach us on Monday!
No panic i think i got the hang of this wavy hand sing-a-long stuff. Gitika is back today but due to Customs and Exercise
will have to be in Quarantine for the next 16 weeks!
How wonderful it must be to hear your grandma’s voice from the past!
