Aaaah yes , the Gower Festival. Wonderful setting, like a miniature Stonehenge.

I was lucky enough to see Del there six or seven years ago.Bill Caddick was there that year too, first time I'd seen him.

I remember helping Derek change his guitar strings. He didn't have anything to pull the pins out with , I had to lend him a pair of pliers. He belongs to the "wind fifty times around the string post"
school. I tried to explain the Martin philosophy of folding the string back on itself to provide automatic self locking. I think he thought I was mad .....

Even off stage he is the funniest person I have ever met.
