Whenever I start talking about Olives and Olive Oil with some of my friends who are my age or older the conversation has often ended up going to Popeye and Olive Oyl his girlfriend. People then start talking about tins of Spinach something that Popeye  ate to give him strength. I have eaten spinach but I have never seen it in a tin.     

Annwyl brawd Piri  you are  right warm olive oil helps.  My in-laws introduced me to it.   The olive itself is rich in vitamin B6 which contribute to the proper function of the nervous system and boost the metabolism. Olives also contain vitamins C, A, and E which all help a variety of functions throughout the body. When I was in Greece staying with my in-laws it took me a while to develop a taste for olives as there are so many different kinds. After a while I found the ones that suited my pallet. Maree’s parents had olive trees and made their own olive oil at home. They also made their own cheese from the milk of goats kept by her step mothers brother in-law. Another thing I liked was they grew their own eating grapes. It was really communal the making of alot of the homemade cooking things. Over summer Maree’s parents kitchen would be full of woman gathering together to make cheese and oil and other things for the whole extended family.

Iechyd da!

Jim I like the way you turned this song into a duet.     

Jim those two opening lines have a magical flow that took me right into your song.
Sitting by the campfire, and my guitar weeps so sad
As I’m dreaming of the soft look that her eyes once had
I can imagine  a man drifting from one place to another his guitar his best friend singing and thinking about how his way of life meant he lost the love of a beautiful lady.
The only change I would make to the first line is I would change the word and to as.
Sitting by the campfire as my guitar weeps so so sad.
Brilliant song you written there tells a good story.

Happy New Year Jim to you and all your family plus everyone else here on chordie. After a tumultuous few years around world lets hope things look up in 2022.     

Merry Christmas Jim, to you and your family and also the good people of chordie.. That is a really good rocky toe tapping singalong  song. All the right ingredients for entertaining all the family young and old.  Love the video the pictures are bang on.     

I guess the opposite of Hotpants is Coldpants.? I saw a couple of young ladies wearing Bellbottom jeans the other day I wonder if they are about to come back into fashion. When I have been shown old photos of me long hair and bellbottom trousers I cringe. I now understand why my Grandparents thought I looked ridiculous.
