Why malign that poor girl who was lead astray by the likes of Prefumo etc.

She was poor but she was honest,
though she came from 'umble stock,
And her honest heart was beating
Underneath her tattered frock.

But the rich man saw her beauty,
She knew not his base design,
And he took her to a hotel
And bought her a small port wine.

Chorus: It's the same the whole world over,
It's the poor what gets the blame,
It's the rich what gets the pleasure,
Isn't it a blooming shame?

In the rich man's arms she fluttered
Like a bird with a broken wing,
But he loved her and he left her,
Now she hasn't got no ring.

Time has flown - outcast and homeless
In the street she stands and says,
While the snowflakes fall around her,
'Won't you buy my bootlaces.'

Chorus:

Standing on the bridge at midnight
She says, 'Farewell, blighted love!'
There's a scream, a splash, good 'eavens!
What is she a doing of?

Soon they dragged her from the river,
Water from her clothes they wrang.
They all thought that she was drownded,
But the corpse got up and sang:

Chorus:

She was poor but she was honest,
Victim of a rich man's game.
First he loved her, then he left her,
And she lost her maiden name.

Then she ran away to London
For to hide her grief and shame.
There she met an Army captain,
And she lost her name again.

Not me, again. Wrong headers and no sig. Sigh!


My apologies to Chris Hogg. I have realised you did not write this or cross
post the previous one. It is one of 'Judith's' games.

'Judith' complains that he doesn't forge addresses. Technically he is
correct because he knows if he uses real address, he could be in trouble so
he uses someone's name/nick with a ' address because most
people wouldn't notice the difference and which unfortunately, you already
have, so it was hard to tell. He also does that when posting himself
because he can get away with obscenities and pretend he didn't post it.

Several people have told me he is Peter Turtill. I leave it to anyone who
cares to follow that up.

Apologies again to you, and to everyone here.

Please will you STOP posting this tripe in urg.
No-one is interested in your childish vendettas
You made little contribution to gardening issues when you used to post
here.
Pleaase go away again.

Because I know little and would like to learn

Pleaase go away again.


I have only responded to others over this rubbish. I will always defend
myself wouldn't you?

I would love to post about gardening.

Please advise me on my plum tree which has not fruited this year and the
leaves have holes in them?

The plum tree on our allotments hasn't fruited this year either and only one
of our 4 cherries, the later flowered one, had a decent crop. I believe it
was because there were no insects about when they flowered they they didn't
get pollinated.

Thank you. We did get a lot of bees - which I hadn't seen for a very long
time - but I think they were too late. I do have some apples (James
Grieve) but not too many. Down to weather do you suppose?

I am a beekeeper so no problem with pollinators. I just
didn't get any flowers!

Not sure about the holey leaves, but did your tree fruit well last year?

I think plum trees can be prone to the same 'biennial bearing' as some
apples. My MiL used to say her ancient old Victoria plum would fruit
poorly if it had had a very heavy crop the previous year, as if it took
an extra season to build up strength again. That seems to be true as
last year the old tree hardly had any fruit at all, but this year is
absolutely dripping with plums.
