Attention all shoppers, the last sunday session of the month (31st August) at the six bells in barrow upon humber will be the lovely niknak's leaving do before she jets off to be a full time layabout (student).

Be there or don't

If I wasnt being well paid to go to Cherburg I would be strongly tempted cos she is a lovely fiddle player and she plays well too.
Whatever she is doing best wishes.

She's off to Newcastle University to do a four year degree in Folk and Traditional music - what a life learning to play the fiddle and flute even better than she does already! Ha it's alright for some!

Count me in, of course. We don't need to lose musicians like nikki, let's hope she does the usual student thing, bugger all work and back home most weekends for laundry and food - or even Tuesdays for the Coach session?

Doubt that I can make it, but I envy her (already) brilliant playing.Send her all my love and good wishes, and ask her not to forget us poor folks when she's famous and doesn't play sessions anymore. Good luck Nikki.Thanks for all the excellent sessions.

Love n peace.

Eric

PS, are you taking the wheelbarrow with you?

I have just realised that Nikki is my inspiration too. Hold hard, avast and lay low. And think of sea anenomies. But only occasionally.

And thanks to Pete's holiday I will be playing in the Sun that day so i can't make it either.

I think that the answer to that one is a very probable yes, deanie. Also it is highly likely that I will also be missing from that session as I am helping her to move.

OK, I know the August PtH thread started in July, but why would the Sun's first Sunday session be on the 31st of the month, hmmm?

Nikki's imminent departure must be addling the brains of all you chaps (nothing new there then.)

The 31st is the end of the Hull Sea Fever Festival, when lots of extraneous outsiders will be in the area, and some may not have to dash back.

Nikki will be greatly missed. Hope you give her a really good send off, people.

I think she plans to be rather like a yo yo, deanie. She will be back on a regular basis and I believe will be continuing to play with PTH for a while anyway.

Dear Niknak,

               My parting advice comes as a saying from the Profit:

          "Reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol".
