Dear All, I was putting one of my free hours to good use the other day by composing a ballroom dance parody of “Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport” (‘Tiny Kangaroo Dance Sport’ {aka The Wallaby Open Competitions in Australia) and the last verse (“Dance on my grave when I’m dead, …
Dear All, Wow. Here it is, the last week of March. For a month named after so prosaic an activity as marching, it sure scampered through quickly enough. Next year we will refer to this month as “Scamper”. Remember this and don’t be confused. So, “final week of the …
