Sing a little song

LUNCHING with friends recently, we reminisced about music that brought back happy memories. We touched on songs taught to us by grandparents, which are rarely heard today. We all remembered a particular song book, but not its name—until my friend arrived in great excitement with a copy of The National Song Book. Since then, I have sung my way through a good many, including Early One Morning and Cherry Ripe. Sue Cuthbert, Buckinghamshire
