McGrath of Harlow - thanks for putting the video up. You called it "subtle tasteful and cheeky accompaniment" - too true. During rehearsals it was even more cheeky! Sad to think that we will never perform that one together again ...in fact that song was the first one that he heard me singing, and that gave Ralphie the idea to turn my talk ,then in preparation, on the life of Lucy Broadwood into a show with accompaniment. It was a privilege and a joy to work with him.We were talking more than once in 2012/2013 about making a recording of the songs as a record of what we had done - sadly that will now never happen. There is another video of him accompanying me on guitar (sadly also not particularly great quality) on the song Nancy if you seek for it, and another of him playing in Housewives Choice band. Can't watch them at the moment, as I'm too blurry eyed.
