I mentioned that "eggs is eggs" occurs in four of the THIRTEEN books. So you have to check 'Coots in the North' for the final occurrence. Sorry Ed!

Is there a mention of AR singing The Lincolnshire Poacher at any point in a biographical work?

I know he was fond of Sumer Is Icumen In. I looked up the lyrics once and chortled as I read the line "The billy-goat farting". Perhaps AR sang it in the original Latin to avoid embarrassment?
