@ Dave the Gnome. How very kind of you :)

I keep threatening to go to Skipton but Monday has been my first night of a long week with work the next day. My new job may give me a Tuesday off so the 100 mile round trip is enticing. I am on leave w/c 26th so be careful what you wish for! I don't know the Keighley club but will look it up. I have sung near Hebden Bridge and found Yorkshire folk very friendly when I have been on the borders near Blackburn and Oswaldtwistle. TBH, music is an oil that keeps many cogs happily lubricated between people who are open to diversity :)

I hope you are happy where you are and have kept your Lancashire passport should you ever venture back! lol

THank you for sticking your neck out... it really is appreciated. Yourself and several others have kept my status here on these boards confidential and that has been appreciated a great deal over time

Best wishes to you and all on here :)
