Travelling Folk sang the Farewell Shanty in tribute to him last night. Great sound and a lot of moist eyes in the house.
Most of us could imagine him propping up the bar with a pint and a cigarette singing along with us. Someone commented thaty he would be watching us from "up there". The rest of us were not so sure that "up there" was appropriate given that "In Heaven there is no beer".
Bert would have enjoyed the craic.
