St. Audries Bay 2008
So here we are On a rainy day
We've been making a CD at St. Audries Bay
With Rod and Co.
Who showed us how to go
They make sure
There is always more
And that the tempo
Is always one one four
Rod
He made us all work for HIS CD
But he has time to reflect
On all the royalties
That he will collect
Aidan
He plays piano and a mean fiddle too
He made us laugh and giggle
More times than a few
He know many tunes and devizes
But I'll be glad to see the last of those exercises
Annette
Ran us ragged with "Salty Dog Rag"
But now it's recorded and in the bag
Without her help it can be seen
The tempo would have been one fourteen
Harry
A gentleman and a Maestro extraordinaire
He make all look so easy its just not fair
He will play any song you suggest
And will jazz it up since he must be the best
Frances
She made sure we all kept time
On her snare drum
And who Rod made carry and run
But probably without her
None of this would have got done
So this poem must end
And so must this week
To Rod, Aidan, Harry, Frances and Annette too
Let us all say a big thank you
Just a couple of line to go in this clause
To say thank you
Lets give them all a
Big round of applause
