      Gosh, I don’t know… It’s a tech issue I’m not up to date with. If you write to me via the ‘Contact’ tab, I can send you an mp3.

      If I may offer some advice — right-click on a page you want to download from; then poke around for a file name, or .mp3 or .mp4 or whatever it might be. You (or at least I!) can usually find something helpful.

    Autumn’s Here

    Wind blows the leaves
    From the branches of the trees
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Around the field and hedge
    Berries black and red
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    Nature starts to sleep
    Creatures dig down deep
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Squirrel gathering nuts
    Stag begins his rut
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    Clouds chase the moon
    Night owl hold the tune
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Now it’s getting dark
    Before the working day is done
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    Rain washes down
    Blurs the bright lights of the town
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Please to put a coin
    In the homeless young man’s hat
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    In Lebanon in Pakistan
    There’s camps of refugees
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Fleeing from oppression
    Where guns are fired for God
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    The north wind doth blow
    And we shall soon have snow
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here
    Give words of warmth and gratitude
    Be kind to fellow men, women and children
    Hey ho diddle ai ay
    Autumn’s Here

    Lovely, Alison! It is really good to hear you in tranquil frame of mind. Goodness knows you have earned that. Your valiant battle has put Britain on the Revisionist map, and you have become the star performer on the international Revisionist scene.

    Beautiful song Alison.
    Has a lovely, poignant melancholy feel to it, not too disimilar from my favourite jazz standard, which depicts the same season.
