Thanks for all this, I've check out both Birmingham Trad and Black Diamond threads. Interesting! I note that both Derek Catley and Phil Cross are currently residents, and there is a CD available. Please pass on my compliments!

I have both these people on my tapes. Any news on Mick Bramwich and Sean Myles? I met Mick in Sidmouth in the 1980's and recall he told me he now lived in Devon. I've met some of the other regulars through my Morris dance connections.

Thanks all to 'Catters who have put up Bob Cooney threads. I wish now I had seen him more.
