Sowerbutt's Song

What was the phrase in the government booklet pushed through the letterbox the other day, Sowerbutt tried to remember? Dig For Victory. Some hope, he thought, more like Dig In Desperation.If he heard that Potato Pete jingle on the wireless one more time, he would throw up.“Here’s the man who ploughs the fields.
Here’s the girl who lifts up the yield.
Here’s the man who deals with the clamp,
so that millions of jaws can chew and champ.
That’s the story and here’s the star,
Potato Pete
eat up,
ta ta!”
Enough griping, the young singer Betty Driver was a real dish from the photographs he had admired in the newspapers. amazon.co.uk/Colour-Lemon-S
