Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh UNCLE ANDY ~ The Fobile Moan of the Mobile Phone ! I dont have one & never will ! They are 1000% intrusive & and intrusive ! I insist on them being turned off in my classes !

I have resolved not to let my (unborn as yet) Children have a MOBILE PHONE until they are 18 ~ and can UNTHINK for themselves ! Like ITV & BBC Radio 1 ~ they are a *BRIDGE to FAR* ! Thanks for DOLLY always SASSY best Female Pop / Country Artiste of the 20th Century !

THANKS UNCLE ANDY ~ For brihtening our Christmas Morning (its now Noon !) with an excellent Jazz Trio playing a lovely & lively Tune. You always surprise us Musically ~ even on Christmas day ! Love the sentiment of your Poem and we hope & pray your wish will be answered ! However the reality is that the GAP between the HAVES & HAVE nots widens every day ! There will be many @ this Christmastime who will spend more on Alcohol than a Family in LETHOSO have to feed themselves for a WHOLE YEAR ! JESUS said *The Poor you will always have with YOU* and he was right ! The SALVATION ARMY Worldwide will feed many Lonely & Needy today *Many Thousands Wordlwide - AMEN !* It is one branch of the Christian Church ~ Angela & I support financially the Year round because they actually practice what JESUS Preached !
Blessings & Peace @ this Christmas Time
To You and Your Beloved JOYCE & Family
Love & Prayers as always ~ BRIAN & ANGELA

A good write Gold. Seasons Greetings to you and yours too! Yes, a difficult time for some (for many?)
. I believe the change or \'fix\' needs to be from within people, not merely changing the \'outward\' things, call it society, or whatever we may call it.
A carol wisely expresses it:
From \'O little town of Bethlehem\':
\'O holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today (by the Spirit)\'

A Subaltern\'s Marriage.
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Good Evening UNCLE ANDTY ~ Ahhhhhhhhhhh *MISS JOAN HUNTER DUNN* a Betjeman Classic & one of his BEST ! Angela & I give talks on JB & his Poems. We share the recitation but this one always Falls to ME ! It is a delight to recite but it deserves to be recited slowly and with great respect ! Anyone who can work the WORD *EUONYMUS* (Winter Creeper ~ Flowering Plant) into a Poem deserves to be Poet Laureate ! There are some other delightful lines in the Poem and in my Literature Classes for Adults I lend would-be-Poets a portfolio of about 12 Betjamin Poems and ask then to read mark learn and inwardly digest them ! I ask them to recite their fave and I play it back to the GROUP.. As Tommy Dorsey said to SINATRA to be an effective SINGER you have to *MILK THE WORDS like CROSBY* Its the same with being a PERFORMANCE POET ~ One has to *MILK THE WORDS* and JBs words are very very milkable !
We love the actual last verse :
The scent of her wrap - and the words never said
And the ominous ominous dancing ahead
We sat in the Car Park till twenty to one
And now Im engaged to MISS JOAN HUNTER DUNN !
The cars mentioned HILLMAN - AUSTIN - ROVERS - Betray the ERA !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOUR Beloved JOYCE

Alan .S. Jeeves said:
A Subaltern\'s Love Song is an astounding poem, Andy, poetic license of course.
One must be very careful when naming names in poetry. J. Hunter Dunn was still living when this became a world wide, well known poem and deemed to be one of JB\'s finest.
She became Mrs. Joan Jackson and died in, I think, 2008. She did not, however, have JB\'s son.
The pen is mightier than the tennis racquet.
Ex animo, Alan
