''Canny Bit Verse'' is a book, written and published by poet Robert Allen from Northumberland, England, in 1994. It contained a variety of poems, which between them praise the valley of the North Tyne, talk about local village cricket, or tell of sad occurrences as in the "whee's deid" (obituary) column, and according to the sales details "and for those who don't know their cushat (wood pigeon) from their shavie (chaffinch), there's a glossary of dialect words".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.localbookshelf.co.uk/reviews/CANNY-BIT-VERSE/Robert-Allen/1/2391.html )〕 The poems were written at an earlier date and had been recorded by Allen on to three audio tapes, which he had produced; these are ''The Canniest Place on Eorth'', ''Ridin' High'' and ''The Lang Pack''. The 128 page book is illustrated by local writer and artist Henry Brewis. The Northumbrian Language Society, of which Allen was a founder member, is the sole supplier of this and other of his books and recordings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.northumbriana.org.uk/langsoc/activities.htm )〕 ==Contents== The contents cover many topics, mainly written in the Geordie dialect, often very broad.
