This is such a good thread that I'm going to hijack it again :-)
This is a tune that I learnt while ago (I found it by accident while I was looking for Puddleglum's Misery by John Kirkpatrick - another great tune!)
This is a good one, like Joe Scurfield's, for getting the dusty buttons into play. (ps I've no idea why its called a hornpipe with that key signature - I've also found it notated in 6/8)
I've put it into the Tune database so the dots are easily available.
