Alas,it would have been a three day journey for us from sunny Holderness. How's 'A trip to the lakes' doing out there Gregg? Penny and I were singing along to 'Birds upon the trees' yesterday, as I have worked out a wholly inappropriate flamenco version for us to while away the days in t'country.
                   The true path.

Greg - Just thinking - Wouldnt it be cheaper to let me come to one of your sessions , rather than pay some else to keep me away ?

It's only money, Leadfingers. What is that compared to peace of mind? It's not as if you command very high fees, anyway.

Another nice session in Penkhull, Stoke-on-Trent, at the Greyhound Inn. Tomorrow night, Wednesday February 13. Time to stock up on Boat Band CDs, which make fantastically romantic Valentine's Day presents.
Come along and listen, drink beer, or play tune, or sing a song.
Snug fire.

Will,
give someone a banjo and they will be happy for life. Introduce them to a bodhran player and they will form a band, make lots of great music and lots of people happy. Isn't that one of life's truisms?
