‘Ouses, ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses – “Makes me prostrate with dismal”


I’m thinking that this track / song is likely to become the theme tune for the planners in the Waterlooville area.

I know that the song is based around Saltdean and the South Downs, home to the Copper Family, who are based in Rottingdean and Peacehaven also in Sussex. The track  features reminiscences of their family.

However, the sentiment is fitting for almost anywhere in the UK these days as the planners clamber over themselves to fill in all the open green areas with ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses

Take a listen ….’Ouses, ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses – John Copper & Sheila Chandra

It makes me “prostrate with dismal” too.
