This one's a rave from the grave, Daithi!

Yes, we are still going strong apart from one week of nil attendance and three hundredweight of the usual excellent grub laid on by the lovely Jo. Mental note to let her know when attendance is likely to be thin, but it was just that we all thought the others were going.

I am going to that Scotland tomorrow, but should be home in time for tea, so hopefully see you there for more of the excellent same.

I echo the above sentiments, though I was only there part of the time. I'll be there next week, hope loads of us will be. In the meantime the very heartiest compliments of the season to all my folking folk friends, may 2004 bring us all plenty of tunes in D, G, A etc. with the odd Bm and Em thrown in. Invitations to the old place have already been given out, do come on Christmas morning for some smoked salmon and Bucks Fizz. Or whatever you fancy...

I suspect I will be instantly eviscerated if I suggest such an outing, MR, but I might try the old brother-in-law needs a pint routine and slip over.

jOhn, where are you when I need you? I have just paid £20 to nestle my poor aching head in the bosom of my fragrant girl dentist, as she held me tight as I moaned and wriggled until the stubborn molar was ejaculated. And to think I could have swapped that for a general round your gaff, with complimentary drinkies, and saved £18.

Yes, it was braw session last night. Good to see Jo installed in mine host's chair, and some feeling of permanence creeping back in.

I feel sure our efforts to set down roots in the Six Bells will be helped by a good attendance tomorrow, and most of us will probably be in the Christmas mindset, so please make sure you get there if you can. Previous Christmas do's at the Sloop were always first class, it would be nice to set a good precedent in Barrow.

Did you not know, jOhn? It's one of the filips of the peace dividend that one can pick up heavy armaments at ridiculously reasonable prices, and rather than dabble in gun crime, I am purchasing a Panzer in which to go out drinking in Barton, and then warn anyone who starts somthing that I'm packing heat.

What a simply dreadful night and morning. I was just settling into some tunery at the Six Bells, when the worried face of one of my offspring was pressed against the pub window. Wouldn't you know it; Me chimney was on fire. House full of hysterical women demanding to call the fire brigade, who changed tune when graphically told what the colateral damage to the house entailed. And incidentally, why are they called Fire Fighters? Shouldn't dustmen be called Refuse Fighters? Or the polis Fighter Fighters? I withdrew the fire, took out the flue between stove and chimney, stuffed the flue hole with a wet towel, and eventually regained the Six Bells to find my flock engaging in Pop Music! Honestly!

This morning dawned with an blossoming abscess, so it was down to the tooth doctor short order, who prescribed extraction of the chap above the abscess. After deep injections, I swear that Doctor Mengele had their boot on my jaw to get more purchase. The anaesthetic was useless, the pain extreme, but there was no way that mother was coming out, so I am now anti-b'd and drugged beyond the eyeballs, with gums in tatters, no booze for the next five days, when the next assault will take place. That in turn guarantees more anti-b's over Crimbo. Deep joy.

Gordon, thank you for the kind offer of the Admiral, yet again. May we see how the Six Bells session progresses over the next weeks, and revert on this if it bites the dust.

I'm sure there is enough north bank support for the Admiral session anyway, as we seem to tempt few enough to pay the ruinous bridge tolls these days, so why don't you go for it anyway. We will mount occasional cross river raids to support you, by publicising that the Six Bells session is cancelled for those particular weeks.

Good luck with it.

Lee - landlord of the George, Barton - told me yesterday as we were sipping fruit juice together (alchol is an abomination of the infidel) that he had it straight from the Coach and Horses ex mouth Jo, that she was to move in to the Six Bells, Barrow on Monday. I understand that she bought it! That would surely secure our future there. I suppose I could check this out along with Skippy on Monday evening (a daytime visit is out for me as I am due to visit a mosque in Scunthorpe).

Allah came to me in a dream last night and said that KJ was about to reveal in stark detail Skippy's facilities. Be ever vigilant. It's going to come about. I can feel it in my water.

Sorry to have missed last night's session - the fog kept me from venturing up your end (er...).
It's almost uncanny that everywhere this session moves to gets jinxed before many weeks have passed.Where's the old landlord moving to? Anywhere we might tag along?
Also, is not the last Sunday session to be held at Scanlon's Greg, as once mentioned - and if so would that be on for the 27th (day after st Stephens?)
Plan to be over at 6 Bells on Tuesday next but will check here first I guess!
