Sorry Vic,
Didn't see your posting - this thread is becoming a little unnavigable.
I've already acknowledged that there are two clubs in Lewes and that when Pat was doing the Singers Club bookings it was yours she occasionally swapped guests with.
Have never been to either of them (think we only visited Lewes twice and both times came away with some wonderful books from your bookshops there (Songs of the Rump(Parliament not backside)).
Would be interested to know which of the clubs was 'visitated' by a gang of blokes (including collector extraordinaire the late Tom Munnelly) from our local here in Miltown Malbay just after the smoking ban was introduced in Ireland.
The story goes that one of our lads was found smoking outside the pub and was told "It's alright to smoke over here".
"Ah, doesn't seem right any more", was the reply.
Best wishes,
Jim Carroll
