Just back and rested a while! Devon was grand! The weather, hot and sunny - like all the missed-summer forced itself into the one week. Sunburnt on Dartmoor, T-shirt-order walks in Plymouth (Harbour n Hoe) - same on cliff tops and beaches of N Devon - sweltered! Promotional appearances all fruitful! Grand company at each successive place... Thanks Tom & Barbara for your hospitality and company. Got a bit worried arriving in your venue by the shiney pole (for obvious dancing, the use of!) - I didn't use it! Neither did anyone else - phew! Great club you have there (despite a lower attendance, this week, than normal) twas still a vibrant singing club - and friendly... just like all the Devon venues I was lucky enough to play at this past week. Bideford - full of grand singers/singing/smiling.... Folk on the Moor... once again, fab club and folk! They sure took to m'choruses at Lee Mill! Big thanks to Ben & Graham and the regulars there! Thanks to all that put me up, put up with me!!! Sold CDs, got firm club (proper) bookings - and at least one fest! Stayed at some great places with some fab folk - met loads of good folks - and heard some crackin' singing n playing down there. Gotta go back soon! Even finally managed a DRAW at drafts with Nic!!! - after tons of thrashings from him at doms/chess/any games!!! - over the past few years! Success, then!!! Cheers, Dunc
