For a number of reasons, including doing a gig for the Festival just up the road, I didn't get there until the last hour or so. So it fell to my lot to sing the last solo spot of the singaround, and join in the final chorus.

At that point, there were still around 80 songs on the list I had prepared that hadn't yet been sung by anyone else, and there were several other singers there with plenty of spare capacity. If it hadn't been for the "Irish Session" who were booked in the same room for 3pm, and who had been muttering about the record attempt overrunning for the preceding half hour, we could have been there yet! Still, I suppose a close had to happen somehow. I guess no-one expected the record attempt to run as long as it did.

Hearty congratulations to all who contributed, and especially those who toughed out the entire session and to Tony and all at the Hoy at Anchor Folk Club who made the whole thing possible.

Wonder what the individual record is?
