I enjoyed that, has it any connection with a 'Shanty' called Bold Taylor ... chorus way hey Stormy! walk him along John carry him along etc

 

Must get a little fish eye camera and do the YouTube etc. I thought it was all vanity but now I'm not so sure! I enjoy so much stuff that's put up.

No, I don't think so, Michael - Major General Zachary Taylor (I know the shanty as "General" rather than "Bold" Taylor) was a hero(?) of the American-Mexican War of 1846-8. My William Taylor (who may or may not have really existed) came from Lichfield, Staffordshire. ;)
