There;s a song called Happy wanderer. We had it on an old 75 record when I was little. I remember sitting on the table listening to it on the old gramaphone that you had to wind up :o)

The record I had was older Morgana. I don't know who sung it. It sounded like a choir of girls. It was a very old record and you had to wind the gramophone up with a big handle. Thanks for the pm. I'll take a look.

Lovely colour, PP - from your title I guess this one spreads?

I think Del Shannon sang a song called Swiss Maid, Morgana. The Happy Wanderer starts of 'I love to go a-wandering' - I've got a long memory too, Hywel and remember having this old 78 record and it was sung by the Obernkirchen Children's Choir!

Thanks all for your comments, pleased you like it It does indeed wander Gee! About the title I remember The Happy Wanderer very well as I think Im the oldest here and it does start "I Love To go a wandering along the mountain track, and as I go I love to sing with my Knapsack on my back" Valderee Valderahh Valder hahaha ! Lol

Lovely Nasturtium Pp.......they're such an unusual looking flower aren't they? I remember the Happy Wanderer, we made an L.P. when I was at Juniors at Chatsworth House , this was one of the songs on it, then we sang at Llangollen at the Eisteddford....it was amazing, the first time I'd been away from home, I thought it was the other end of the earth....Lol!
