Wonderful Manfred!

I think we have all known a 'Mary Murphy' or two in our lives, and lament that hole that they leave in our hearts.

Ah Manny ! ! - a great lyric there !!
A real bottler - with a few hints of Willie and a definite note of Tom Waits - and I enjoyed the Yeats reference too...

What can you do mate - things fall apart.

better bring one of those bottles with you when you come out and we'll go and have a drink to Sturt and Poole and all the girls they loved?
