Hi, Bassie- yes tis' me- the singer of shanty type songs. I wanted to make it to the session at Hessle. Never quite got chance.
I will be in Hanoi, Vietnam for 1 year- i've been here for about three weeks- i've got to do another year at old Bishop Burton College from Sept 2003. I'm looking forward to it- although the presence of Folk in Beverley does fuel my enthusiasm- just a little bit.
Punch the Horse- well Hornsea could be tricky- I'll see if I can't get you a booking in Hanoi. Traditional Vietnamese wedding- well it would make a change from the bloody Karaoke- very popular over here.
Oh, while your'e singing one for me- have a pint as well because the beer over here is pretty rough. They do a draught beer called 'Beer Hoi'- well i'll say no more.
Well apart from the poor beer and lack of Folk I am actually having a good time- Vietnamese culture etc. Keep writing Chris
