Hi Lad - I seem to recall being the proud owner of a single (a small plastic circular music playing thing) with The Ferry Bank Piper on one side. Or is it a false memory?
Thanks for starting my day with a laugh and a song! I was first drawn to the cadence of the phrase ‘Ferrybank piper’ and the nifty harmony lines provided by Roxanne (during some fabulous Augusta moment or another.) But now as my hearing begins to deteriorate, I find myself puzzling ever more frequently over phrases like ‘fairy bagpiper’, or ‘swallow the herring whole’. I’m choosing to be amused by it all, as I consider hearing aid options…. ‘I’d put rings on her fingers and gold in her rear’ was an early entry in the “Wait. What??” column. 😆

You are correct. If Wishes Were Horses was on the other side.

Hope y’all are well.
Love your story and love the song. Thanks Robbie!
