Errrrr humbly sorry Mavis. Some of those mentioned above e.g John Howarth of the Tinkers, Mike Canavan, Martin Lynott (of Beggermen fame) and Tony Downes (occasionally), Jack & Mavis Lee + Des Friel can be seen (and heard)down at the Oddfellows in Middleton on Monday nights. As we're being Mancy nostalgic, who remembers the great nights at the Black Lion run by Pete Farrow and where John Cooper Clarke often 'starred' afore 'makin it big'? and a favourite local poet who sadly passed away a year or two ago - Paul Connor.
