I wondered where my Mum learned it, now I know! She was a Guide! Anyone know the one about "There's a long long worm a-crawling Across the roof of my tent; And the morning whistle's blowing, And it's time I went"?

I have heard it but don't know all the words off by heart - but I'm sure I can find one of my Guiding friends somewhere in the world who does. I'll get back to you. ;-) > Or the famous "Someday I'm going to murder the Bugler!" http://www.scoutsongs.com/lyrics/hatetogetup.html Katie Ontario

Hi Katie and Ian I'm a Guider in Ontario and the version I remember from being a Guide in England is:- There's a long green worm awinding along the ridge of my tent and the morning whistle warns me that's it's time I went. There's some cold, cold water waiting for me to take my morning dip and when I return I find that worm upon my pillowslip. There's a long green worm a winding along the edge of my tent and the evening whistle warns me that it's time I went. There's some warm, warm water waiting, for me to take my evening wash and when I return I find that worm upon my bed, squish squash! Katie, are you still active in Guiding? Would enjoy hearing from you Cheers, Thelma Blackburn Callander, Ontario -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
