Subject: RE: Charley Noble Revisits Oz Fall 2007
last night was wonderful - great songs from Charley then more good stuff from the Wheezers. For me, the best musical memory was Charley singing Cicely Fox Smith's "10 men" (not it's real title but I'm too tired to go looking & find it) - sung to the tune of Henry Lawson's Outside Track (& don't ask me what tune that is - it's too hard to reach over & pick up my copy of the Lawson CD!!) Getting back to my narrative, th audence didn't know Cicely's lyrics but they did hum along to the song & it was magic.

Today Charley was accompanied by his banjo, & he & John played a bit of a banjo duet!

We had a great party - JennieG did not make it, but I'm sure we'll see her in November @ The Shanty night, along with Bob Bolton who gets back from his holiday next week & Chris Maltby who was AWOL. Freda & Hilda were there, as was (Guest) Gerry & I've just realised we did not get a Mudcatter pic.

We will all have to assemble on the James Craig for the obligatory 2007 Charley Noble in Oz Mudcatter group portrait.

But I do have other pics & will load them onto my pic site tomorrow
