Carol, I suggest a trial visit before you sign up for this asylum. How about next year?

Bill, not a prosaic man, eulogises about the worldwide friendships that have come about through Mudcat, and having Linda to represent the US 'Catters put a lovely dimension to the event, even the tea-soaked late night revelry in the trailer.

Poor, Linda. She borrowed my jallopy to drive the one mile to her digs, and ended up touring Wales for an hour and a quarter, eventually crawling into the pit about 5am! Then she dragged the back axle along the road back to Pippins with an enormous bag full of ROCKS?! And you thought we were strange? Hope to see more of Linda before we give her back.

So, Carol, you must be at least one of the US ambassadors next year. Just get yourself to the airport, and you will be processed by UK Mudcat for the duration of your stay. No ifs and buts, just do as you are bid.

BTW< Sam, that 422 CD is the definitive canine apendages. It is utterly superb from end to end, and I could not endorse it more strongly. Faultless musicians playing with passion. And yes, I'd like a midi of the Llanfair Gathering. That B part is a terror to learn when your mind is stuck in 4/4 time! greg@johnwyattltd.co.uk
