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"

    • 22 Upland Road - next to Eric’s. Another recommendation for this cute cafe. The coffee is excellent and the owner very friendly and helpful. 
    • There’s usually free parking on Saint Francis Road as well. Permit only until 1pm.
    • PUSH Studios is a well appointed dance/fitness studio off Lordship Lane on Blackwater Street. A Tuesday evening slot at 8pm has become available for rental for any instructors looking to hold pilates/yoga/ballet/dance/wellbeing classes. Our hire rate is £30/hour and includes equipment (mat/yoga blocks/mini balls/weights etc) plus introductory mention in our newsletter. For more information contact Carolyn at [email protected] or visit us at www.pushstudios.co.uk
    • It is a bit (and unnecessarily maddeningly) complicated because you have to choose a type of swim (lane/over 60/men only etc. and even which speed you’d like to swim at), so I sympathise. I have no idea why Southwark won’t repeal these rather daft restrictions or at least some of them and just have most of the day as open swimming (with one lane always roped off for those who want to do lengths).
