The Nursery and shanties are my first memory of folk - specifically 'Red' Reg Crawford, Graham Whitley and Roger Kennington giving them some welly in the late 70's Anyone else here remember those days? Hope it goes well |

07 Mar 08 - 11:21 AM (#2282130) Subject: RE: Hartlepool Shanty Afternoon 9.03.08 From: Northerner Sounds good!!! I even have an eye patch, which would surely give me a good piratical look. Pity my surgeon has banned me from doing anything that is remotely interesting at present. I'm recovering from a trabulectomy, and most thoroughly bored. Hope you have an amazingly good afternoon.

Scary. I will, however, look forward to hopefully meeting the Young'uns at Lancaster (Glasson) over Easter weekend. |

The only thing I know about Hartlepool is something about a nuclear power station. But that was yonks ago and we were still in the design stage. Did it ever get built? |

08 Mar 08 - 07:09 AM (#2282799) Subject: RE: Hartlepool Shanty Afternoon 9.03.08 From: Northerner A trabulectomy is a surgical operation on the eye to treat glaucoma, particularly when medication (eye drops) has been already tried and not been successful. My op was there and a half weeks ago. Hopefully my surgeon will let me do normal things again when I return for another check-up on Tuesday. It means I have missed several workshops that I had wanted to go to, because of the surgery. Thankfully I was able to go on a storytelling gig a few days ago, thank goodness. I told some stories at a local WI. |

Sounds like you had a good time . Webfolk and others should really have given Alan Todd a mention, he was high on my list of remembering folks at the Nursery. Cheers Betsy. |

13 Mar 08 - 09:49 AM (#2287310) Subject: RE: Hartlepool Shanty Afternoon 9.03.08 From: Joe G Oh yes - I remember Alan Todd's 'No More Frying Bacon' well. I think it was his own song but not sure - anyone know for certain? And Neil Hart was one of my favourites in those early days Maybe a Nursery Reunion would be a good idea for those of us still around? Joe G |
