I got to know a few of them through Getaways and travels to the UK, and have good memories of those I know and hope to have more. I've stayed with the Ducks and heard how their Canadian listenership suddenly must have increased, was on a narrowboat trip with Alan W. singing sea shantys in the long canal tunnels where the acoustics are so good, sent a song that Teresa liked and requested to her and will never, alas, get to hear her sing it, and count Carole & Andrew as friends and have sung his songs. The one Shellback recording I own, I greatly enjoy.

I wish it could've continued and I wosh the whole lot could have made it back over to the States, but all good things must end for whatever reasons, and I'll hope to see whoever whenever and however in some context or another.

All done, yes, but both rare and well done!
