Fond memories of Calennig singing at Kirklington Folk Club, where Len and Barbara were the organisers. They moved up to Chirk in the Welsh borders, where Pat and I visited them - Len had his workshop, where he used to make traditional toys. They both came down to Llantrisant Folk Club, where Barbara sand her wonderful self-composed tune to the words of I Wandered By A Brookside. Later, I Wandered By A Brookside was recorded by an artist and became a hit, thanks to Gordon Potts who managed to secure some much-needed royalties for Barbara. As Leadfingers said: The Great Singaround has just got a LOT Louder!
