Great sadness I was too young for the GIs but I knew all the word to this song. Isn't it great?

Good Stuff!

kenju said...

I have never heard that one before - and I can't believe that I haven't!

Pat said...

Naomi: thank you and also to you. I'll look it up and send it if I can find it.

Tony: hi and welcome. I miss passing through Hebden Bridge on our way to the cottage in Farnhill /Kildwick near Skipton.

Judy: I can't believe you haven't:)

I'm having Naomi's problem seeing the embed.

Sigh

I hope you have a joyous Easter, dear.

Cheers.

Good heavens above, I'd forgotten that one entirely!

Kevin: I did expect you would know it.

Cool song! And sung so cleverly.

I'm guessing you met Anna. Am I right? Am I right? Tell us!!!!!!!!!!!

My mother-in-law was born in Chester, and met my father-in-law when her was stationed there during WWII. They have been married ever since then.

Pat said...

Sam: not Anna - how great that would have been. I'm taking a break over the holiday week-end - over the last month I have suddenly found I can no longer access a couple of blogs I've visited regularly. Back on Monday or Tuesday.

Debra: that's like my auntie who lived in Lancashire. She married a GI from Rhode Island and they are still married and living in the states with children and grand-children.

Pat said...

Sam: oh one of them has opened up again. That's better:)

Sheri said...

I think I saw one of my uncles in one of the photos! I'll have to watch it again. Thanks for sharing this.

problemchildbride said...

It's not my site is it? Were you having a problem accessing mine? I haven't been posting anything, nor visiting either. Just busy with school holidays, camping out, bits and pieces. The last post I did was nearly 3 weeks ago.

FMC has shut down her's for a couple of months due to work.

Pat said...

Sheri: how exciting. Do let me know if it is him.

Sam: no it wasn't you. I would have been devastated. FMC was one and I guessed it must be something of the sort but it's still a slight shock. The other one seems to have righted itself.

Pat said...

I don't know what the funny stuff is. There were two and I hoped it might translate itself en route to the comment box.

Kath said...

Love it! I've heard it before - have it on cd, I think - but I really like the photos that they've put with it. Good lookin' guys :o)

Pat said...

Kath: I thought you must know it. I think the lyrics are so smart.

In a previous life I'm sure I was sitting on the front of a Sherman tank flashing my fishnets at the liberation of Paris.

Daphne: I was always sad I was too young for the GIs.
