Captain Moonlight's Notebook: Say what you like about . . .

Edith Piaf but:

she didn't like baths and therefore didn't sing in them

she didn't sing Les petits shoots verts de recouverie economique

she didn't have a problem with the Germans

she didn't actually write Je ne regrette rien (Charles Dumont did)

two million people won't follow Norman Lamont's funeral cortege . . . but they might turn out for his resignation
