I remember the Manchester Group meetings held in your flat in Keppel Road Chorlton well. I used to attend - I think it was the late Terry Whelan who persuaded me and Ned to go along. They were really useful and I still have some of the paperwork you gave out about song decoration.
When Ned and I moved to Leeds we used to run something similar in our house ( it saved us having to get babysitters ) and Barry and Jackie Taylor used to help run it. I still have some of the notebooks we kept criticisms and helpful comments in. I can't remember many of the other people involved - it was the 1970s!) but Jim Doodie was one.
