This is a humorous poem from Banjo Patterson about a simple minded fellow from the "Bush". Our friend has a trick played upon him by a cheeky barber who made him believe he had cut his throat......
A totally brilliant reading. You did it syllable by syllable the way I reckon it should be read, and your pace was perfect. I remember my father (English born, NZ'er) giving us this one. "Their eyes where flat their eyes were dull, they had no brains at all." Who has ever put together a better tri-graph of sound and concept. Go Banjo.
Thankyou yours is the best rendition of this poem I have heard thats an authentic sounding accent,
Thankyou and a big thumbs up from Jimbo
