The "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald " was obviously a major tragedy but there is one thing that does not improve it.
Having to apologise to the not very humble Baronet.
Some time ago he referred on this forum to the "dirge" (he was writing of the TWOTEF) . I took some level of umbrage in a reply as the term in most common useage. in Aus. is (pretty much purely) derogatory and would imply that it was a funeralesque sounding tune .
The quote from above : " He wrote it to the tune of an Irish dirge he heard when he was 3 ". I was not aware that this was a descriptor that was not necessarily derogatory
So sorry Hooligan I really do not know what your irrelevant dribble means or if you posted it into
the wrong thread ??
Just maybe you were confusing Ireland and Oregon??
I can only suggest you book an urgent appointment at:-
