No, it's the Events Department in Torbay Council, actually, Dave. A chap called Conway Hoare (what a great name, he belongs in a novel.)

Ah yes, Gloworms, that was their name.

Actually, you told Colin off for being a pain in the arse when he said that Show of Who were only liked by women of a certain age, first time I ever wrote on that board, as I recall. :0) I think I saw him dancing outside the National Trust shop a while back, not on his own, I hasten to add....He kinda gave me a slight glimmer of a grin, somewhat embarrassedly..if that's a word.

I don't work for them any longer, they've gone 'Corporate' in my opinion, so I wrote and told Fiona Reynolds what I thought of her organisation and where she was taking it. Yeesh, bunch of Sales Reps have taken it over on the retail side...and that is sooooo not what it should be about, so...I resigned, with a Capital R.

Now, where were we?...Oh yes, glowing with worms

And er...scuse me, but the little group of whom you speak, Sweetums, is part of the Traditional world, methinks....the very one I'm talking about being a closed shop.

Yes, with reference to a post above, I'm puzzled too, as to why Show of Hooos new fans, they being the fRoots traddies who now so admire them for telling me to be quiet, or rather, not talk about them in gloworms terms, but rather spit vitriol about them, as apparently they like that..haven't said a bloomin' word about them.

'Tis a puzzlement, huh....

Maybe they're waiting to write about Show of Hose's new CD. Aha! That's what it'll be! Silly me! :0)

Oh...and Phil Beer has fallen off the newsletter. I think someone should go look for him, because I'm a little worried over that...Just Steve on there now, with Miranda and Jenna in the background, but..no Phil. I'd go and search for him myself, but he may think Glen Close is getting closer!

LOL

Folk on The English Riviera

Hmmmm...maybe we should go French...all dress as Onion Sellers, whilst listening to Mawkin playing Au Francais down on the harbour wall...
