Margaret and I still do, Mary, and very fondly. We were saying to each other only the other day that those nights at the Unicorn were some of the best we ever spent in any folk club.

I played Swindon Folksingers Club last Friday (opening with Cob-o-coalin', to suit the time of year) and found that the memory of Harry Boardman is still very much alive in that neck of the woods. And I still rate Golden Stream one of my favourite albums ever.

Btw, I've been trying to persuade the National Festival to book Joe Kerins, not sure with what success as yet. Anyone out there have Joe's number, I've lost it.

Don't think we can make this Friday, unfortunately. Have a good one!
