Clever and lovely John - it will be great to hear it with music, as it's perfect for that. Well done!

Thank you Catherine

I will have to get in touch with my muso friend to see how things are progressing. I never received the draft version of the song that he was going to send through to me.

Regards

Nice one John, it fits the old tune of 'My Grandfather's Clock.' in two four time.

Thanks Dave

That tune does fit as well, I was thinking something with a little slower tempo though, but it would work.
