We'll be there. I like the concept of comforting oneself with music & what a better place to do it in a pub where one has access to other forms of 'solace'. I'm afraid someone has got it in for 'The Sloop', & yes the absentee landlord is a b*****d by all accounts, but the present tenants are working hard to keep the place going & have been very welcoming, so it seems very unfair. Its a shame its not the middle of summer as we could have all played outside on the pavement, entering the pub for previously mentioned 'solace'. I wonder what laws we'd break then? Breathing probably!!!
