[Dixielandjazz] Bix

[John Farrell]

There is a village named Bix near Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire. England. I
used to pass through it frequently during the days when I worked (a very
loose interpretation) for a living. At one I time seriously considered
moving there for the sole reason of having such an illustrious address, but
sadly its astronomical property prices sent me scuttling back to Tingewick
to rejoin the peasantry.
