Here I sit with a pint of Guinness and a head full of memories, thanks to all the contributors to the mudcat over the last few years. I have enjoyed the discussions and contributions, its such a unique thing to see in this age of me, me, me that so many people can come together under the banner of folk music (however you interpret it)and willing share. I have a heart full to burst..hopefully not before I finish this Guinness. Anyway I wish you all a happy holiday and all the best in '99. Now I have to go do the Santa Claus thing.
