My copy of Living Tradition jncluding my piece about Bert has finally reached Lovely Leitrim. I asked if they'd use a picture of Bert with his 'stage gear' on as I'd referred to it in the piece.

It was all a bit short notice when I heard that no-one else had offered, so your pic may not have arrived in time?- LT are also very aware of the copyright aspect, although I'm sure you would have been OK about that. Having said that, the one taken by Pete Heywood is a really good one.

As for joining Mudcat, I subscribe to the Marx Bros. view that I would never join a club which would have me as a member.
I just like to dip in now & then...
