Sad news about Bruce Scott. We knew him quite well as he was part of the Melia clan in Liverpool. I cant recall ever seeing him sober although his singing seemed to get better and better the more he drank.
Clive - Hilary says she has a poster advertising the first Bothy at the Cattle Market. I will ask her if there is a date on it. Although we are first cousins, our paths never crossed on the Folk Scene, or did they and we were unaware that we were so closely related.
