Subject: RE: Help: Portsmouth (Hants, UK) contacts
Thanks, everone - just the information I was looking for! I'll be arriving Monday morning so I'll have most of a week before I can get there.

The name Sooty Broughton rings a faint bell in my memory (which was always bad and getting worse in my old age) - Has he been doing this a long time? I ask because I would like to remember which venue it was the Boarding Party sang in (~1983/4) - the choruses were wonderful, even better in the second half when a bunch of Morris Men arrived to help out, and if I am recalling correctly, Tom Lewis was there and sang (maybe the first time) 'Survivor Leave', and during the day we actually saw an aircraft carrier returned from the Falklands war, with some visible battle damage.

For anyone who wants to contact me while I am over there, I am not sure how much browsing I will be able to do on mudcat (it's the company's laptop and I don't have an ISP there), but I will be able to pick up my e-mail sent to dov@pobox.com.
