here's some money for the Bosnian relief fund.

Well now, Granny Bing,

I’m afraid there’s not much Bosnian relief around here in the East
Midlands.  So instead, I thought I’d  point you to my favourite
Bosnian song.  Just scroll down to no. 15 on
http://musicalconfrontations.com/cd10000601.htm and click on rc1000064
“Kad ja podjoh” (I hope it works, my speakers are out of commission
for the next couple days!)  If you want to know what you’re humming
along to, have a look here:

Actually, this page misses out the last verse: he did go to her house,
but only the next day, and by then she’d married someone else - ah
well, early bird and all that.

Ha, did you notice that the tune is based on an ilahija, a tune of the
Dervishes. However, I think you’ve had enough whirling round here
already from Lisarea.  So instead, how about visiting the site of a
softer Sufi:  http://www.jamesburgess.com/ Click on Dances, and you’ll
eventually get to some instructions for various Dances of Universal
Peace – much easier on the brain than whirling. (Oh, forget about
clicking on Unicorn Charity, there seems to be a bit of a mess up
there, and the page is missing).  If all that intrigues you, find out
more about the DUP here:

enjoy
the beaky one

the softer side of sufi, eh?  it's a lovely #15 and it's indeed great
having speakers again.  thanks for the extra linkage.  I'm missing my
favorites file but hopefully I'll get 'em transferred one of these
days.  you know how granny never asks questions in a normal way.  this
was like a game of GA Jeopardy and I enjoyed it immensely.  thanks for
playing!
