This song was written some time ago.. Thats the whole Story! I did try to condense  it, but changed my mind as it was losing the debth of what its about for me.    Maybe a bit sad for Monday Mornings! But Im a happy Doll  today.
As I am only now getting a better grasp of picking. This one is finger picked..
I think its sounds just right this way! So Thank you!

Hi Daddy Cool,
Did you bring me home last night/early morn? and write that song about me?

I was only ever drunk once. I was 23, had 3 vodca and lemon. My first alcoholic
drink. Drunk them quickly like lemonade.I didnt know they should be sipped.
passed clean out. Sick for a week and the horrified look on my Dear Mams face
was enough to make me never get drunk  again. I do take a drink still once a week.
Its the late nights do me more damage now.
your song reminds me off "The Bay CityRollers, Shang A Lang.

Well Done!

Fáilte Bootleger,

Thank you for your reply, May i return the compliment!
When i stopped laughing at your initial response. I see now what you mean
about liking the sound a guitar makes. My sons friend has taken over a small
music store,and he is giving me what seems like a good deal. So i will spend some time there with guitars, before deciding.
Funny after having a few Bacardis last night! I couldnt hear the echo?.
Yes! I do sit when playing. Yes i have tried adjusting my legs in various positions { Dont know why writing this is making me laugh} Serious now..
but it made no difference..
As to your question am i blonde? Yes!  im also a Virgin.? Virgin on the ridiculous!!!. 40dd, 30 waist, and 36 hips... Sure bootleger the girleys are planning our christmas w/e away. Lovely Hotel, ill book you in, and you can check for yourself if any or all of the above is true.
Ill  keep the guitar till then and you can check out my echo.
I also have a lovely heart etched into the bridge with our 2 names on.Its only massive Boot! just so you dont get lost when next visiting?
Thank you for your insight into guitar positions! Life will never be the same again!

Virginal Old Doll!.

STRIKE! Don Corleone.
Sore head and all that goes with it today. Your Reply made me bust out laughing.. nice one. I love people with a healthy sense of fun..You just proved you have one!

I could do with a run myself today! I ate and drank my years calories all in one go last night. Great Music, from the last 30 years. Surprise visits from family
all the way from Boston. Ah Yes! my Sons House was well warmed and blessed with goodness last night..
See thoses wee baby back spare ribs with barbacue sauce! They are sinful.
Creole Chicken, Mozzarella Sticks, You name i ate it. Must be something to do with our famine history..... No wonder i dont feel the Mae West today..

Any one want to hold and mind me today! I could do with some TLC.?

God that was a great response! Will some one  "Hold me till i Cry"

Hi DonCorleone,
Well if you saw the way my heart is bleeding for you that Samoa was beaten
in the rugby, you would be very impressed.
Now all you have is NewZealand!
Talk about being a lucky Git! Be grateful you Islander !!.

See all the Dosh you lost on your nags!!. Heres what you need to do!

Get some Poitín {Poteen} Irish Moonshine . When next grooming your horses
give them a real good rub down of this stuff. Its great for horses/ greyhounds,
well known in these parts. The  lady who taught me my massage used it on her greyhounds! we here use it for muscular aches as well. Great stuff, would strip paint..
The real story about Shergar! They rubbed to much Poitín on him and he is still
running 17 years later!! So rub them well, put all your money on them and some for Misé {me]. Then send my winnings to my offshore bank account>.

God i nearly forgot! Rub plenty on your self  Don,as your gonna need it to keep up with them!! lol.  If they dont win you wont feel any pain anyway.
Below is your Celebratory Song.
As its only Sat night here, this Old Doll is going party /sing!!


THE POTEEN SONG
Now learned men who use the pen have wrote your praises high
That sweet Poteen from Ireland green, distilled from wheat and rye:
Throw away your pills, it will cure all ills of Pagan, Christian, or Jew
Take off your coat and grease your throat wish the real old mountain dew
Slán agus happy racing!

Fáilte AlecinOz,

Oh My Land, Oh My love, what a Woe and how Deep..

  { James Clarence Mangan}

The Cockerels came home to roost alright! and in such a clinical manner.
Even the statues here were crying! they need to get more then there fingers out.?
Do you know there is or was great snobbery here in The Rugby Circuit.
in Dublin anyway, kinda considered a yuppie game for years. While in The County of Limerick its considered the working mans game. This is not meant to be offensive to Limerick people. I have had  many good times in the Shanagolden Area. James Clarence Mangan Country..

Now Alec, more to the point how would you feel about this?

Our National Anthem is Amhrán Na Bhfiann. {Ow-rawn nul vee-yunn}.
A Soldiers Song..

The latest here in Rugby is to play a song called "Irelands Call "

One or two players, from other parts, alledgely refuse to stand to our National Anthem.
So they have adopted this song.. I find this is Policital Correctness gone nuts!!

Any where i ever was i stood and gave there Anthem my utmost respect.
I am after all a visitor in there country.
We have had a huge influx of foreigners to our Isle in the last few years, all very welcome i might add... But the Muslims and others are now demanding we take our religious icons down? as they find them offensive?  They are here in Our land. Bring your own and add to ours, but dont try to subtract ours that we strove so hard to keep as part of our unique identity..
Can any of you out there imagine being deprived of your National Anthem.

The All Blacks have Samoans, { As the Don fella keeps reminding us of }
They not only learn the haka, but the New Zealand Anthem as well. and sing it with the utmost respect. Our Anthem is ours. Insist on singing it with or without consent. They cannot silence thousands of people in a Stadium.
At the end win lose or draw, sing Ireland Call. I have, love the tune! But its not my Anthem..
Look what you started Alex? Have to go now, 1oo crab cakes waiting to be made for my sons house warmer tonight, where there will be plenty of Shenanigans. No doubts!.
Slán down under. good luck in the Rugby" we havent a snowballs chance in hell.

Hi Bootleger,

Ive been given the oppurtunity to trade or buy a new Guitar!

I love the sound of the guitar i have now.. My problem with it is the
Body has a high shape under my right shoulder. When i practise for a long time
i get a sore shoulder?
I also have a smaller one, given to me recently for practise. This causes no problems...but i dont like the sound.
In your opinion, what would you recommend for a woman? Personally i dont see my self as a Daisy Rock Type. Tehe...

My other guitar also on one of the strings makes this echo back into the body
when playing? Its not buzzing ,its an echo?.
I was thinking of learning how to yodel to accompany it? lol.

forgive my ignorance on this one. Any tips please.

Old Doll.

Thank you to all the guys brave enough to comment on this one!
But the funniest was a guy some time ago, when the discussion came up about
womans Breast...
While everyone gave there opinion, he just sat there  with a glazed look.. His eyes went around his sockets like 2 prunes in a bowl of cream.     Still would love to know what he was thinking!! as he didnt say! or could'nt?
Maybe he was just very deprived of these 2 luxuries in his life!.
I do not regret having them, im only ragin i didnt know the power of my assets
many years ago lol. Id have had the men lolling at my feet!
Im telling you guys, when my ship comes in ill be at the Airport!!

Southpaw41l.

Hi
i was on Chordies Facebook tonight, as i could not bear to watch any more
of our Irish Rugby Team getting  the A La Carte" Knocked out of them by the French!

Ron Paul is running some of his Campaign through Facebook? Is this a normal
procedure with American Politics?.   I know some people are not pleased as the language is choice in some of the answers! Just wondered what you guys thought?
