I saw Mike standing in for a poorly Norma when she should have been in Salford with Mike and Peggy Seegar. I really enjoyed his singing and choice of songs very much. Daughter pointed out that most of them mentioned 'bum' at least once but I can forgive him that:-)

Funny thing about the name Marie - changes as you get further north. First it is ma-ree, then as pointed out, in the North it becomes Ma-ri. In Scotland it changes yet again to Mah-ri (as in Wedding). Funny old lump of rock we live on init?

Cheers
