Well, I survived that lot, and am now back home. The tour was successful.....played almost all the right notes, and sang almost all the right words. Sold a few CDs. Plenty of interest from organisers, and some potential times suggested for bookings - March, June and September. Now I've got to start sorting out the possibilities, and see if I can actually make more money than it costs me next time! There was already an email from one club waiting for me when I got back, asking me to contact them to arrange a date, which is a good start. I think I've now floor-spotted about three quarters of the clubs in Kent, Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey, and some in Berkshire and Herts. Had some awful problems travelling, though; every time I went out to a club, I seemed to join the back of a queue after about two miles. (Although I managed to arrive at the venue in Prestatyn - some 360 or so miles away, at precisely the time I intended). My tent is now falling to bits. They don't make stuff like they used to. Anybody know a folk song about how much better the old ones were?
Tarra well! JK
