Attended Bob's service at South Shields Crematorium yesterday and it was endearing to witness the number of people from the North East folk scene who turned up to pay respects; some of whom I hadn't seen for over twenty five years!
Unfortunately as I had to drive back to Nottingham straight after the committal I was unable to get to the gathering afterwards at The Marsden Inn. Since one or two people who visit Mudcat were present perhaps they can let us know how things went yesterday afternoon.
