Straighten Up and Fly Right. All the best for a speedy and complete recovery. Seb
I bumped into "My Old Flame" "On the Street Where You Live". I asked her, "What's New?" She said, "I'm Getting Married in the Morning". I said, "Congratulations" then decided I must "Take the A Train". I got off at Lonely St. and headed for "Heartbreak Hotel"
After your operation, it'll be "So nice to come home to , so nice by the fire"...
From Ann Alex, Thanks so much Seb for the good wishes. I love that song title, I suppose it comes from WW2, a message to pilots. And Lance, I hope that's not the story of your life!
I think Straighten Up and Fly Right is about kicking the habit!
Jude Murphy Get well soon, Ann x

Ann as "Spring will be a little late this year," when you get back home it's sure to be "Summertime"
From Ann Alex. Thanks to all of you for the good wishes and the fun of the song titles!
Are you going to St James Infirmary? It could be The Last Dance, one thing is for sure, There’ll Never Be Another You (phew!). On your return to the folk/jazz scene you could quote Oscar Brown Jnr - Excuse Me For Livin’ and suggest Somebody Buy Me a Drink. That’s assuming it isn’t a case of After You’ve Gone!
