What a cracking night at the "Durty Nellies" sauna !! All hands on splendid form,venue packed to the rafters.Lovely to see "Whispering" Chris Mullins and Sheila and the venerable windswept Les.

Guy in the audiance asked Mrs.Ossonflags if we knew the "Wild Rover"
When told by her that was a tad boring he said, "I bet they don't know "The Ragmans ball".Proceeded to do the song and same guy pressed a tenner into selfs grubby -and sweaty - palm thanked me and departed.The lovely Mr.Wasling remarked in his usual inimitable way " if you got a tenner for one song should be selling CD's for £200" !!!

Am now departing to spend next two weeks at the Whitters.Hope to see some of you at the festival.
