I was always told that I was born in 'Flete Castle' though without a silver spoon in my mouth. I was however born in Flete House, which was used as a maternity hospital after the Second World War
The Flete estate borders on Mothecombe beach on the Erme Estaury
It is also close to Yealmpton, the home of Mother Hubbard's Cottage
"Old Mother Hubbard..."
by Mother GooseOld Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard
To get her poor dog a bone;
But when she came there
The cupboard was bare,
And so the poor dog had none.
She went to the baker's
To buy him some bread;
But when she came back
The poor dog was dead.
She went to the joiner's
To buy him a coffin;
But when she came back
The poor dog was laughing.
She took a clean dish,
To get him some tripe;
But when she came back
He was smoking his pipe.
She went to the hatter's
To buy him a hat;
But when she came back
He was feeding the cat.
She went to the barber's
To buy him a wig;
But when she came back
He was dancing a jig.
She went to the fruiterer's
To buy him some fruit;
But when she came back
He was playing the flute.
She went to the tailor's
To buy him a coat;
But when she came back
He was riding a goat.
She went to the cobbler's
To buy him some shoes;
But when she came back
He was reading the news.
She went to the seamstress
To buy him some linen;
But when she came back
The dog was spinning.
She went to the hosier's
To buy him some hose;
But when she came back
He was dressed in his clothes.
The dame made a curtsey,
The dog made a bow;
The dame said, "Your servant,"
The dog said, "Bow-wow."
