Rozza suggested I write to y'all....I'm Michael Bonner, and I'd be interested in talking with anybody who remembers the early days of the Gainsborough Folk Club, or as it was known then, the Bothy Folk Club. I'm talking 66-70. Michael Whyte and I started the club in the Horse and Jockey (while I was an apprentice at Marshalls) and he was about to go to Ireland to work in a cheese factory. We soon moved to the White Hart and Alex Campbell opened for us for 15 pounds! The Meggies used to come for beer money and I remember the front row was always filled with "bikers". So, please correspond if yous feel like it....I've been living in Minnesota USA for the past 21 years. Mike B
