Yes, of course I've done my presentation.
Some of it.
In my MIND.
Look, a pterodactyl is making off with Margaret Thatcher's wig! *runs*
(BBC news reported the break up of Mark Thatcher's marriage, and included this paragraph:

"Educated at Harrow, he left in 1971 with just three O-levels. He did not go to university, and failed his accountancy exams three times."

And then they begrudgingly admit that he's actually quite successful.

I know the dreary hymns and the happy clappy hymns. That's the beauty of going to a CofE school with a trendy vicar and a miserable Methodist church.

I now present the lyrics to Family of Man
The family of Man keeps growing
The family of Man keeps sowing
The seeds of a new life every day

I belong to a family, the biggest on the earth
Ten thousand every day are coming to birth
Our name isn't Davis, Hall, Groves, or Jones
It's a name every man should be proud he owns

I've got a sister in Melbourne, a brother in Paris
The whole wide world is dad and mum to me
Wherever you go you'll find my kin
Whatever the creed or the colour of the skin

The miner in the Rhondda, the coolie in Peking
The men across the ocean who plough, reap and spin
They've got a life and others to share it
So let's bridge the oceans and declare

From the North Pole ice to the snow at the other
There is not a man I wouldn't call brother
But there isn't much time, I've had my fill
Of the men of war who intend to kill

Some people say the world's a horrible place
But it's just as good or bad as the human race
Dirt and misery or health and joy
Man can build or can destroy


I know many many more. Of the upbeat "Hey, the CofE is run, look at us swaying slightly of Songs of Praise" variety.

You should sing "If I had a hammer" because of the comedy "Aaaaaaallllllll over this land" line. This was sung to great effect with my sister and I on a Girl Guide camping trip, until she whacked me with a mallet on the line "I'd hammer out love between my brother and my sister, aaaaallllllll over this land"

Ooh! I will get Jen to teach me the tune for the next car journey. Which, come to think of it, is for Connotations next weekend.
