He has a place to crash in, nudge nudge!

Be very careful or he will bring the banjo! His FG360 however does sound nice.

Don't forget all the carol singing just an way up the M1 around Sheffield - e.g. The Royal in Dungworth on Sundays, Castleton on Christmas Eve and other places. Grand Union club in Barrow on Soar(20 miles s. of Nottingham) will be caroling some night in Dec - check their website for date(link from Tigerfolk site given above). Would be nice to see you at the Tiger on Jan7th.

Nottingham central "Trip to Jerusalem" - not folk but used to be story telling - if the pub has survived well worth a Trip to Jerusalem just for the looking.
