The folk grapevine's been a bit haphazard, so for any former Herga or Uxbridge members whom Alison cajoled into buying raffle tickets, barn dance tickets, dressing up for Herga birthdays or cream tea workshops at Sidmouth, singing special songs for special occasions, etc etc - Alison left us a week ago, and her funeral is on Thursday afternoon, at 2.30pm at the United Reform Church in Macclesfield.
