Weston beat. Weston beat.
We did an outside broadcast from Weston Supermare, on the beach, singing this one. Ed's playing a homemade hand-held washboard.

A song for the seasons. Played live on Calico pie, a children' show on BBC Radio Bristol, 1970s.

We had some amateur radio enthusiasts on the programme, so I wrote a song for them.
