Ruby used to live in a village just south of Northampton where I grew up. I remember coming second in a fancy dress competition, Ruby was presenting the prizes I won 5 bob but I also got a kiss off of her that was about 1962 , I was dressed as a scarecrow such memories

This is England. Some folk got here yesterday. Some never left. For sure you never forget the place. It has been a wet, wet summer this 2012, which makes it even greener. Unfortunately no jobs, but it's not bad here either. We do share the same weather from the Atlantic Ocean. And guess what, this 18th September there's a whole new storm coming in...................Slainte.

Shalimar was a popular perfume at the time. Great song! Strictly Cash, the Johnny Cash tribute band.

any idea what the "Shalimar" referred to in this and several other songs is supposed to be? I understand that that it was a type of diamond but "the breeze as sweet as shalimar" does not seem right in that context. There's certainly no shalimar in Ireland that I know of - isn't it a Persian term?
