Subject: RE: Obit: Ian Ferguson Memorial Ceilidh
I had no idea Ian had died. I knew him well from Ringwood Folk Club and other venues in the Bournemouth area----we often exchanged views on various Scottish songs,and he seemed to quite like my version of "Ricky doo dum day " ! I always enjoyed his anti-feminist ramblings and small-pipe playing. And his demonstrations of "Cat's Cradle " were a joy to behold !! And I never realised that "Polly Sqeezebox" was Chris Mason either----I have accompanied him a few times at Ringwood too ---Hi Chris !! And RIP Ian--a great loss to the Folk world.
