They just keep getting better and better. I’m a real fan.

Early doors pie

I swear

They are only 50p

Give me a pasty fast

We

Are with

Clanjamfrie

And this

Is

Otley

Early doors Friday

Just made it

Head with intent

(And bugger the tent)

Bay Horse of course

Mint! –

With it

Mushy peas

Dine with me

Who? – You know

Clanjamfrie

Hulking great happening chaps

Having a pint

That first glorious pint

Oh yes, and the lass

She’s got a glass

Nothing matters

We

Are in Otley

With

Clanjamfrie

‘Beer is neat

Company complete

Who would have thought

From the look of these

Pie and pint chaps

That the singing

The playing

Would be so sweet

Join me

Be early doors free

Best bit of Otley

Clanjamfrie

 

 

 

 

Clanjamfrie I had to write this poem because they complained about the one before it, they didn’t like the line, ‘They keep getting larger and larger’

 

 Clanjamfrie Examined Explained

 

Clanjamfrie:

A disparaging rabble

A mixed bag

As in the Poem

‘Clanjamfrie’

The poem that no one understands:

Mars is braw I crammasy,

Venus in agreen silk goun

The auld mune shaks her gawden feathers

Their starry talk’s a wheen o blethers

Nane for thee a throchtie sparin

Earth, thou bonnie broukit bairn

Let me explain

Translate

(Mars is braw I crammasy,)

If thev ivver fEalt lark fivvers

ligged yer oot o backend

wi nowt bu yer vestments

(Venus in agreen silk goun)

Sithee thess rear as Otley maAdens

(The auld mune shaks her gawden feathers)

Reckonin ti beA sparrer i’evens

(Their starry talk’s a wheen o blethers)

Quit mitherin an gerron wi job

(Nane for thee a throchtie sparin)

Monny a mickel maks a muckle

(Earth, thou bonnie broukit bairn)

As yam as owt wi nar pilava

But greet

And in you’re tears ye’ll droon

The hail CLANJAMFRIE
