You are quite right John, there will be many folk people who have fond memories of Elsie, and the club named after her. I certainly do. I enjoyed several visits there and grew to admire Elsie's workrate in serving two bars on her own and always with a smile. I got the feeling she enjoyed the singing as much as the audience and guests did. I do hope that this is not the end of the club, which is an outstanding place, the site of so many pleasant memories for me. I hope Elsie's Band keep on playing too. The folk scene in general could do with more like them. Rest in Peace Elsie. Condolences to her family. Roy Harris.
