God Talks (Part 5)

Miserable Jack Horner and Friends

 

Little Jack Horner

Sat in a corner

Eating his heart out.

*

Little Miss Muffet

Sat on a tuffet

Full of cares and woe.

*

Jack and Jill

Went up the hill

In despair.

*

Oh, the grand old Duke of York

He had ten thousand men

And they were depressed a lot of the time.

*

See-saw

Margery Daw,

Having terrible mood swings.

Robert and Clara Schumann, Joke-writers (Part 1)

Robert and Clara Schumann wrote some of the greatest jokes of the nineteenth century. Later, Robert was driven mad by his own punch lines. But today Robert and Clara’s jokes are repeated all round the world.

God Talks (Part 3)

Miserable Malcolm at Priddy, and if Wishes were Horses ....

Miserable Malcolm will be appearing at Priddy Folk Festival tomorrow (and is unlikely to have cheered up, to be honest).  He will be doing a 40 minute set at the Words Wizard Cabaret along with Trevor Carter (Bristol Storyteller of the Year 2014) and Spikey Tim (a Dr Seuss for Grown Ups).  The Words Wizard Cabaret takes place between 6 and 8pm in the Goatchurch Tent. Malcolm will be banging on about his usual themes, lost love, death and misery, and hopes that’ll go down all right with a folk audience.
