Thanks Lucy, no rush, I'd just like to find out what hapened to him. He had no background in the restaurant trade - he was previously a rep. for a ready mix concrete firm although his wife was a rally good cook.

Geoff ran several clubs in the 70's & 80's with all the ususal suspects performing (I remember a brief conversation with Jasper Carrott as we were leaving the stage and he was going on!) and therefore he had all the contacts. I ended up organising the sound for him at his last but one venture at the Deanwater in Woodford (Cheshire) - it was the only folk club I know of which had a video link to the bar area so you didn't miss anything.

I'll keep checking back
Cheers, Ray
