Hello Joe, Ray, Hazel, Linda, Kitty, Mick, Les & Nick (who have I missed?!) and thanks for the info.
I can make it to Whitby after all - hurrah! But it won't until late on the Sunday, as I'll be singing at the Moira Furnace Folk Festival for the first weekend.
I look forward to seeing you all in the Endeavour, Station, Rifle Club, Friendship Rowing Club or wherever at some point and also, of course, on the Esk Belle to Staithes on Tuesday.
Roll on!
"I like to rise ...!"
Alan
