22 Jan 07 - 06:55 PM (#1944881) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Zany Mouse Good luck with it. I hope you get a big turn-out. Does Uxbridge FC still exist? Rhiannon |

23 Jan 07 - 04:06 AM (#1945172) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: GUEST,Mingulay at work Yes, Uxbridge Folk Club does still exist although in a somewhat dormant form at the moment and it seems that the occasional concert is to be our forte in the future. Time will tell. Will there be custard with the Spotted Dick? Drool, drool. |

23 Jan 07 - 04:37 AM (#1945195) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Rasener :-) Hows that Golf Course then. Played there a couple of times. Hows the traffic these days :-) Glad I don't have to do Bracknell/Rickmansworth (via Denham) anymore - it put years on my life :-) |

23 Jan 07 - 06:31 AM (#1945269) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: GUEST,Mingulay at work Don't know about the golf course, not having a pet golf, but the traffic is still bad. My current record stands at 45 mins for the 3 miles from the centre of Uxbridge to home. Funnily enough I do the reverse of your journey Uxbridge/Bracknell via Iver Heath at weekends. Even using backroads it can be a nightmare. Any news on the custard? |

23 Jan 07 - 07:53 AM (#1945322) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: GUEST,Mingulay at work Ooops! Finger trouble. What has gone off, the custard or the traffic? Hope it's the traffic. |

23 Jan 07 - 08:16 AM (#1945346) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Rasener The custard :-) And we are worried about the spots on the ???? LOL |

23 Jan 07 - 09:11 AM (#1945386) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Singing Referee Hi Villan, Golf course was OK last time I played it a couple of years back. It won! But they always do! I always end up right (litterally) at the bottom of the hill, when you drive towards the M25 on the 10th'ish. Out of bounds on the left. |

23 Jan 07 - 09:12 AM (#1945387) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Singing Referee I meant M40. Sorry about the thread creep. |

23 Jan 07 - 10:09 AM (#1945462) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Rasener Hi SR - it seems that you only play on it if you don't live there. |

25 Jan 07 - 01:49 PM (#1947815) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Mingulay Sorry to drag you all off the subject of golf (do I hear cries of thread re-creep?)but this musical soiree is now only a week away and tickets are going - not sure where - so if you are in the area and fancy a rollicking good night out for the price of about 3 pints of best (it is round this way) why not come along and say hello. I'm the fat one with a beard and no hair by the way, I wouldn't want you to confuse me with Mrs Johnston!! |

31 Jan 07 - 02:43 PM (#1953777) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: folkwaller Surely people don't still live in Uxbridge. Why isn't the folk club in the Gardeners Arms. Ickenham's a bit posh for a folk club although there used to be good music in the Coach and Horses a while back ( mid 60's ) |
|
31 Jan 07 - 03:16 PM (#1953817) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Herga Kitty I actually remembered to ring the Compass theatre today and book our tickets! Zorg - Derek's got himself an Oyster card, so we're thinking of going by train. Does the bar sell anything worth not driving for? See you Sat. Kitty |

03 Feb 07 - 06:57 PM (#1956940) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Herga Kitty Thanks, CBS for a really good evening - and to Uxbridge FC for organising it, and Becky Luscombe for your set at the beginning of the second half. Kitty |

03 Feb 07 - 07:30 PM (#1956966) Subject: RE: Coope Boyes & Simpson at Uxbridge From: Mingulay Thanks Kitty, glad you enjoyed it. Well, a full house means that Uxbridge FC lives to mount another in our series od occasional concerts (not to be confused with Les Barker's occasional table). Don't know who, when or where yet so watch this space or another very much like it. Thanks are also due to Peter Slavid and Glen Johnston. See you at the next one!! |

Nice voice and good choice of material. A very enjoyable evening. Thanks for the lift home, Kitty. |
