Well thanks for all the kind words, we only sounded that good cuz you all were singing along with us,,,,,and drinking? We had a ball, really, it was a tremendous amount of fun & thanks to all. (see the Scarborough Seafest thread)

Ken was dropped off at the airport yesterday after a visit to the
LLangollen canal & aquaduct in Wales with guides & hosts Andrew & Carole. I think Ken has my voice in his pocket, I can't seem to find it after leaving Scarborough. Deb C's still in the Yorkshire area.
I'm at Andrew & Carole's getting ready for tomorrow. Had a great radio interview with Swansea's John Carpenter who also showed up to play fiddle at the singing session earlier this evening, hosted by Carole & Andrew (thanks again guys) where I was surprised by Mike O'Leary Johns & his Mainbrace partner Tony Fraser who I was hoping to meet up with again. A bigger surprize was sitting there as I walked in, in the persons of Jerry Epstein & Ralph Bodington who are touring from the states, so I traveled 3000 miles to hear them, it was worth it... But the biggest surprize came when a very lovely singer & his wife came over afterwards to complement me on a song I had written ("You Wouldn't Know It To Look At Me") that Mike had requested me to sing after only hearing me sing once before, 7 or so yrs ago. After complementing me on the song he asked me to say hi to mudcat's Bat Goddess from Roy & when I asked "Roy who" & he said Roy Harris I nearly pissed myself & bit my tongue trying to hold back from saying "you mean Roy, my hero". If I had known it was Roy before I'd have sang him all the songs I stole from him. Good thing I didn't have to embrass myself.
I gonna go to sleep now if I can come down off my cloud, wanna get my voice rested & recovered for tomorrow night's singing party where I hear some of the same great singers will be at along with Hillary (My Guru Always Says) & her partner who'll be showing up at. After that we'll be doing Wales around the Swansea area then up to the Bull Bay festival
G'nite all
