PNUTING TO PLACES UNKNOWN

May week 1998: Overnight Pnuting to Grantchester. Well, overnight for the final pnut out of four, anyway, which took the slow and meandering route and had some interesting adventures, as will be below communicated by our Herald Vee, to the tune of a popular song.

a fish.

*Mark in the Sky with Doseybat*

Picture yourself in a punt on a river
with tangling trees and rain-laden skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
a girl who's completely pie-eyed.

Sweet fluffy ducklings in pea soup of green,
clamouring after your bread.
Look for the punt with the Skeet in the front and it's gone.

Mark in the sky with doseybat. Ah ah.

Follow them down to a field by a churchyard
where rocker-like horses have hair in their eyes.
Ev'ryone smiles as you drift past the nettles
that grow so incredibly high.

Pointy-eared people appear on the shore,
waiting to take you away.
Dance round the tree and then go for a wee and you're gone.

Mark in the sky with doseybat. Ah ah.

Picture yourself in a punt on the rollers
with ice in your blood and dawn in the skies.
Suddenly someone has drowned the umbrella,
the girl who's completely pie-eyed.

Mark in the sky with doseybat. Ah ah.

another fish
