He and John Munro were scheduled to perform at Leigh Festival (Leigh on Sea Essex) on 28 June.

I have contacted one of the Leigh organisers who has confirmed that Eric and John had to pull out of the festival. On Eric's website it does show a conflict of performances for that date.

So now I need to look at finding out how far Watford is from Chelsford, what the parking is like and if I can still get a couple of tickets.

If not, he is due to perform at the Hoy at Anchor club in Leigh on Sea on 14 July. But that is one day before we leave for Scotland. So maybe not doable.

Arrghh!
