The bravest animals in the land
Are Captain Beaky and his band.
That's Timid Toad. Reckless Rat.
Artful Owl and Batty Bat.
March through the woodland Singing songs
That tell how they have righted wrongs
Tales from an English Coffee Drinker
I drink a lot of coffee (black no sugar), so much so that no matter what I'm doing I usually have a cup on hand. However, this isn't a blog just about coffee -- it's about anything I find interesting!Friday, 2 January 2009

I love that song!
Whoa! Now that is a blast from the past! Was just talking about tapes I used to listen to as a child the other day. Remembered about Willow the Wisp, What-a-mess, and Peter and the wolf. Had totally forgotten about this one though, what a fantastic find!
Yeah, I first heard Captain Beaky on a tape my Dad made from a reading of the Woodland Gospels on the radio. Unfortunately I haven't seen the tape in years and while a lot of Captain Beaky stuff is now available on CD the Woodland Gospels only seem to be available as a book.
