Dave The Happy Singer
(a.k.a. The Abominable Showman, Still Dave, Oh Happy Dave, The Third Ronnie, Jake The
Peg) was born David The Happy Singer in the twentieth century. His
parents were tree psychologists from the city of Yorkshire, England.
After a time, he went to school. He often caught the bus, as Dave
once recalled: 'I recall I often caught the bus to school.'
Blessed with talents for the Blues, cheese-making and modern
languages, careers advisers recommended he become a blue-cheese maker
abroad. Rebellious even at such a tender age, David went to
university instead, where he made several important contributions to
the Progressive school of stone-masonry and invented the ring donut.
Good day, just letting you know there are 2 new tracks from my EP up on my page now! Head over and have a listen, leave some words if you feel that way inclined. See you at the launch. Sat 27th June @ Bar Me, Kings Cross -h.
Mr Benn is a character created by David McKee who appears in several children's books, and an animated television series of the same name transmitted by the BBC in 1971 and 1972. Whether in a book, or on television, Mr Benn's adventures take on a similar pattern. Mr Benn, a businessman wearing a black suit and bowler hat, leaves his house at 52 Festive Road and visits a fancy-dress shop where he is invited by the moustachioed, fez-wearing shopkeeper to try on a particular outfit. He leaves the shop through a magic door at the back of the changing room and enters a world appropriate to his costume, where he has an adventure (which usually contains a moral) before the shopkeeper re-appears, and the story comes to an end. Mr Benn returns to his normal life as a businessman, but is left with a small souvenir of his magical adventure.
