Subject: RE: Royal Oak, Lewes - Thursdays From: Vic Smith Date: 15 Jan 13 - 08:30 AM This article on The False Beards appeared in our local newspaper who have not been including my recent press releases recently. The answer seems to be to find a local angle (Makes mental note to self.) |

Subject: RE: Royal Oak, Lewes - Thursdays From: RoyH (Burl) Date: 03 Apr 13 - 07:49 AM What a bargain the double header at Lewes May 2nd is! Vic & Tina deserve huge credit for taking this route out of a difficult situation. It's to be hoped that their enterprise is rewarded with a sell-out crowd. If only I didn't live so far away I'd be there myself. Go to it you Sussex folks, fill the place, and ENJOY. This club books quality guests as a matter of course but this double helping is exceptional. |
Subject: RE: Royal Oak, Lewes - Thursdays From: GUEST,Fred McCormick Date: 03 Apr 13 - 08:00 AM Of all the jammy sods. Sara, Kieron and Bruce Molsky on the one bill! Sure makes me wish I didn't live at the other end of the country. Still, I'm seeing Sara and Keiron in April and Bruce at the back end of May. So that should be adequate compensation. |
