Sad news that our friend Peter Twitchett, (Waddon Pete) had a stroke yesterday, I have no more information on his condition, but I know he has many friends here. Our very best wishes to Peter for a speedy recovery, and here's hoping he's performing again soon.

All the best, buddy. Get singing as soon as you can!

I want to thank you for inspiring me to a rethink all those years ago with your unaccompanied rendition of Battle of New Orleans.

As Roy said, I wish you a speedy recovery.

Saw him on Monday. Sitting up and reading but bored out of his skull. Speech OK but right hand not up to scratch so no guitar for a while! If you're near BSE then he's in West Suffolk Hospital, Ward G8. He hopes to MC a concert in Woolpit in 3 weeks time! Will update when I know more.

Sad news indeed - I'd been looking forward to our forthcoming 'first Saturday' and 'second Monday' pub sessions. Croydon's loss has definitely been Suffolk's gain. Get well soon, Pete.

We've now got Dad back home. He is beginning to slowly recover, he thanks everyone for their good wishes but cannot currently use the computer himself.
Rest assured he is still cracking awful jokes and looks forward to catching up with you all soon.
Thanks again

Dad is recovering slowly, he has asked me to thank everyone who has posted, PM'd and emailed with their good wishes. I have show him all of the posts and he is very grateful to you all.

Getting better is a slow old business, but your posts have helped cheer him up.

Thank you John.
