Along with fiddler, Robin and melodeon player, Kevin, the three of us being known collectively as "The Three Grumpy Old Men", I videoed more sets of tunes from our repertoire. We perform together from time to time at local care homes and at "Sight Matters" (formerly: Manx Blind Welfare) as well as playing along with others on a Monday evening at the George Hotel in Castletown.
Set 14 consists of two tunes personal to Kevin and me:
1. Wolvey Tiger - composed by Kevin Mort
2. Bradda - composed by Tony Archibald
Wolvey is a village in Warwickshire visited by Kevin where he watched the local rugby team playing, they being I believe, the Wolvey Tigers.
Bradda is a headland near Port Erin in the Isle of Man and from my living room, I have a fine view of Bradda Head.

![Guitar: Do Wah Diddy Diddy (Including lyrics and chords)
Having uploaded The Mighty Quinn a couple of days ago, I am uploading another Manfred Mann song today with Do Wah Diddiy Diddy.
Wikipedia has the following information about this song:
Do Wah Diddy Diddy is a song written by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich and originally recorded in 1963, as Do-Wah-Diddy, by the American vocal group the Exciters. Cash Box described the Exciters version as a sparkling rocker that bubbles over with coin-catching enthusiasm and said that the great lead job is backed by a fabulous instrumental arrangement.[5] It was made internationally famous by the British band Manfred Mann and covered by Fun Factory in 1995.
I performed this one as my second offering at the monthly sing-around at the sheltered accommodation at which I live and have been organizing such events for fourteen years now. Guitar: Do Wah Diddy Diddy (Including lyrics and chords)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/q8EITfo7ydc/mqdefault.jpg)
