A footnote to my 'accommodation' bit.
Ex-Critics Group member Luke Kelly was once booked at the Grimsby club and was put up by two people who (I think) were friends of E & Ps, Tom and June Fahey. In the morning they were alarmed to hear strangulated groans coming from the bathroom and eventually, receiving no response to their frantic knocking, they forced an entry into the bathroom only to find Luke in the shower doing his voice exercises.
The story can be verified in Des Gerrihey's biography of Luke entitled LUKE.
