I've just released a new compilation
Hello, this is Jim E. Brown. I am writing to let my fans know about my new compilation album entitled Didsbury Songs. It gathers all of the songs I’ve ever wrote about Didsbury. As such, it is very close to my heart.

Putting together this compilation has not been easy. It has forced me to re-live some very painful memories of Didsbury. Some of these painful memories relate to society while others relate to my romantic life.
IM WRITING LOVE LETTERS AT MCDONALDS ON PRINCESS ROAD details the feelings I was having after Annabel left me.
Our entanglement was brief but intense. From the first moment I saw her, I knew that I loved her. We bonded over McDonalds McChicken sandwiches. We’d often meet at the McDonald’s on Princess Rd. and share a McChicken. As a fat boy, half a sandwich isn’t really enough for me, so I’d often sneak off to the counter and buy one or two extra and secretly consume them in the lavatory.
One day, I came out of the lavatory after scarfing down two McDoubles. We started kissing and her tongue captured a small chunklet of beef mince. She was taken aback.
“Why is there beef mince in your mouth, Jim?” asked Annabel. “Have you been scarfing burgers in the lavatory?”
“Why, no, of course not!” I lied instinctively.
“Jim, we shared a McChicken, which has no beef in it. The fact that there’s beef in your mouth means you’ve lied to me!”
She began to weep and ran off. I didn’t chase her down as I was feeling heavy from all the burgers and the half McChicken. That was the last time I ever saw Annabel.

Other songs on the album are my well known and beloved Didsbury classics like SOMEONE LEFT 4 CHICKEN FILLETS IN MARIE LOUSIE GARDENS and PEOPLE NEED TO STOP FEEDING THE RATS IN FOG LANE PARK.
