[QUOTE=susie123;1021727]From readers' letters in the Clitheroe Advertiser:


REGARDING Mr Whalley's letter to the Clitheroe Advertiser and Times.
He is hoping to make a cassette of "A Cot in Ribble Valley" and sell copies for charity.
As I know the words, or most of them, I thought you might be interested in printing them:
Just a cot in Ribble Valley
Where the birds sing all the day
Where the Ribble and the Hodder
To the ocean wend their way
I don't sigh for dear old Dixie
Or the sights of Tennessee
Just a cot in Ribble Valley
Would mean all the world to me

Multiple blessings Sue. You have sorted out the gaps in my memory or my d.o.d's paraphrasing to get this
