Every Sunday evening, we pop out down for a pint
At the British Legion club in Verulam Road
We take out all our instruments of torture, we all know
That sends the buggers screaming down below
There Breezy at the helm, but he's looking very down
Cos his kneeseys aren't looking very brown
etc

Yeah, I might go along myself this Sunday - depending

Oh, Martin - Stevi has a brilliant Paul Simon CD for you - thanks Stevi

Lucky old Dirk

Yes I missed all the fun while I was in Peckham. I've got some sculpture going in a show there so lots of trips to Peckham in my future.

Still Easter Morris at W' Abbey sounds inviting. I did make Les Sullivan's spot at Breezy's, a corking good set he did.

I know it's too late but I can do4 Paul Simon songs now. Or is it never too late for a Paul Simon song?
