Three Ha'pence a foot

 For all those affected by floods, especially those up north, here's my favourite Stanley Holloway monologue (written by Mariott Edgar)

I love the deadpan humour of this.  It's so very much northern English humour.

One of my favourites too. I found myself quoting the 'long bacon' line recently (so much more expressive than 'cock a snook').

And that is a true English Humour - great! Only that northern accent was too difficult for me to listen to. Many thanks for the text, it was very very thoughtful from you!
