Harry the “Hassett” as “Harry The Bat”
There once was a wee lad
Named HARRY … incarcerated
In boarding school Aloysius
Where …
He seized on a bat
His height and weight
As Solace …. and to This Bat he clung
Thru Thick ‘n Thin
Earning him that
Indelible sobriquet
HASSETT … though I say not why
Hassett at the Colombo Oval 1953
And so…
He ended up in Aussieland
Selling bats
To all and sundry
Nondescript … and famed
From the 1970s on …
And,
Good Lord !!!
He is still at it
Today!
