Dear Sir, I write this note to you to tell you of me plight...
While in Ireland I bought a Dubliners compilation album called Foggy Dew. Unfortunately the disc was faulty and only the first few tracks played before it started skipping. I've finally found a CD drive (the one in my iBook) that was able to get past the faulty bit and successfully rip the whole thing into iTunes. It's a really good collection and there's a lot of great stuff on it including several songs I'd never heard before.
One of the tracks on it is their version of my granddad's favourite song: The Sick Note. (Warning: NSFW if you work in a place where crying with laughter is frowned upon.)

I suspect he first heard it on Radio Lancashire in the late 80s.
