So Mother called me to say my favourite film was on. Calamity Jane with the wonderful Doris Day! I was so excited and as I now watch it, i am reminiscing of things I used to sing along or do when watching this as a kid.
Starting with the song that Bill Hikock and Calamity sing when he taunts her about getting Adelaide Adamms to Deadwood...
On the above clip I would ask what she was saying...asking my Mother "what's that bit she says...I've got the 'durisdict' something to be wherever you aint?"
It transpires it is as follows:
"I've got the darnest itch in me, to be wherever you aint!"
Mother might remember all of a sudden alot of salt being used up and somehow ending up on the kitchen floor! Check out 1.17 on the above clip!
I used to clean my room singing this song...how silly I am to share that!
Well, I am going to get on with watching Calamity Jane and hope you all get to see it!
We are all stuck at home, brains like potatoes, alternating between
loungewear and pyjama, grief and acceptance and staring at our knees for
abnormal amo...

Glad you enjoyed it - yes, for the first time in years the kitchen floor is salt free after this film has aired ! Now all I have to do next time you are ill is remind you to watch 'Father Goose' - Qu'est-ce que warts ?
