You can rule out Judith Chalmers, cos she’s here with me.

Sister, sing out loud, sing out strong! Sing of good things (not bad). Sing of happy (not sad). Make it simple to last your whole life long.

Well it got off to such a fine start. Then I joined in and it seemed to go rapidly downhill. Perked up a bit when I shut up, but that didn’t last long and just look at the drivel I’m writing on it now.

Excellent choice, Mrs J. Still one of my favourites to this day.

How very biblical.
