Those days were but yesterday, Breezy, and not likely to be forgotten. Your name was indeed mentioned several times at home after the concert, during an appropriately wet postmortem conversation, and it wasn't just because of the trenchcoat either!

Micca, I am touched by your comments, and I apologise sincerely for interrupting you in mid-pull (oh! the imagery!).

I was particularly gratified by the presence of so many Mudcatters. It also means that my persistent advertising here, at the risk of incurring the wrath and scorn of some, has been worth it! It was as a reaction to their presence there, and of course the whole left by his absence, that I dedicated "One by one" to ColK. I know that he would have been there, as he had at all my other CD launches.

Still on cloud nine and my objectivity is probably low, but I too found it a great evening from my side of the mic. I was so keen for it to go well, in order to please so many. ColK would have been one of them. Of course the evening's success owes a lot to Jonny and Vicki, Doug, David, Christine and Steve, Les...

But I "...hope that I have played my part and been worthy of my friend".
