And The Sharks ...

As I was too busy yesterday, and there is nothing in the Archives for today, here is one that should have been posted then but is being posted now.

At first I read this as Melodeon Shark
As in the NewcastleKingsmen chorus 
"and the sharks they played melodeons/
at the bottom of the bay"

Freudian slip, old age or not enough beer?

 

BTW the crap fb American spellchecker doesn't recognise melodeon - 

mind you a music lover I know doesn't recognise them as a musical instrument either ...

Mrs Meloedon I remember that song Ben!

Drummerman Cf "which burns better, melodeons or banjos?"
Mrs Melodeon Ouch!?!
Drummerman The answer, of course, is "Who cares..."
Bentonbag Then there was the riddle
"What's the best thing to use to play a bodhran?"
"A stanley knife"

If you want to hear the original, unadulterated version of the song go to
