It just sounds wrong when sung by a woman.

I have never dabbled in the dark side of the force.

I thought that too Ron .................... but Joan Baez doesn't do a bad version.

Best version I've heard is by Liam Clancy.

Eric Bogle is a great songwriter - but there are plenty of better singers IMO.

I thought we had a 'throwing up' emoticon but I can't find it.

You're kidding ..................right . The Pogues, an Irish Punk band with a collective IQ of about 3 1/2 who couldn't put two syllables together to save their worthless lives. ?

Eric Bogle used to be an 'annual' performer at the Warragul art centre, just up the road, for a few years but hasn't been around for the past 5 years or so. A real shame as he always played to a full house in an excellent venue. An outstanding singer, song writer and entertainer.

Beijing Hotel Brochure - Translated by Mi Hung Lo?

Bear this in mind should you ever go to Beijing!



A friend went to Beijing recently and was given this brochure by the hotel. It is precious.
 She is keeping it and reading it whenever she feels depressed.
 Obviously, it has been translated directly, word for word from Mandarin to English.



The text below is from the Brochure, currently a PDF so could not attach.

-----------------


Getting There:
Our representative will make you wait at the airport. The bus to the hotel runs along the lake shore. Soon you will feel pleasure in passing water. You will know that you are getting near the hotel, because you will go round the bend. The manager will await you in the entrance hall. He always tries to have intercourse with all new guests.

The Hotel:
This is a family hotel, so children are very welcome. We of course are always pleased to accept adultery. Highly skilled nurses are available in the evenings to put down your children. Guests are invited to conjugate in the bar and expose themselves to others. But please note that ladies are not allowed to have babies in the bar. We organize social games, so no guest is ever left alone to play with them self.

The Restaurant:
Our menus have been carefully chosen to be ordinary and unexciting. At dinner, our quartet will circulate from table to table, and fiddle with you.

Your Room:
Every room has excellent facilities for your private parts. In winter, every room is on heat. Each room has a balcony offering views of outstanding obscenity! .. You will not be disturbed by traffic noise, since the road between the hotel and the lake is used only by pederasts.

Bed:
Your bed has been made in accordance with local tradition. If you have any other ideas please ring for the chambermaid. Please take advantage of her. She will be very pleased to squash your shirts, blouses and underwear. If asked, she will also squeeze your trousers.

Above All:
When you leave us at the end of your holiday, you will have no hope. You will struggle to forget it.
--------------------

Enjoy.
