Yeah, I did read the bit about not being able to use the name of the artist but since loads of other people seem to be doing it, I assumed the rules had relaxed a bit since 37 pages ago. See the one above which went from "Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks" to "My Generation - The Who".


I'm quite happy to follow the rules of the game, but they seem to keep changing!

Nobody's Child - Hank Snow


A song that could draw tears from a wheelbarrow.


"I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child I'm like a flower just growing wild

There's no mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles

Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child


I was slowly passin' an orphan's home one day

And stop there for a moment just to watch the children play

Alone a boy was standin' and when I asked him why

He turned his eyes that couldn't see and he began to cry

People come for children and take them for their own

But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone

I know they'd like to take me but when they see that I'm blind

They always take some other child and I'm left behind

I'm nobody's child...


No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry

Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish I could die

I walk the streets of heaven where all the blinds can see

And just like for the other kids there'd be a home for me

No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles nobody wants me I'm nobody's child"

    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead 
    • Tried months ago, to get folk together to do something, to say thank you. Been a member of the forum for years and if you had not stepped up, would not be an active  forum. Well administered as well. So from me to you, thanks for keeping it going..  Happy Christmas and blessings and good fortune in 2026 which I am told is The Year of The Horse….
