Thread Name: New Folk Programme in Manchester 2
Subject: RE: New Folk Programme in Manchester 2
Hey Harry - you thought you had problems - Ken and Angie Bladen were rushing round West Lancashire villages last night trying to find a new venue for their folk club to host the Poms from Oz tonight (Wednesday) seeing as the current venue had "thrown them out" (the landlady's words!). I gave them a number to ring Ali on before she went on air (about fifteen minutes before by all accounts) to tell her and thankfully Ali was able to give the new venue out on the diary dates. Just to clarify - the Eagle and Child no longer want the club for whatever reason and it will now be held at the Mawdesleys Eating House which is a mile down the road from the Eagle in the village of Mawdesley near Parbold in Lancashire. Ring Ken or Angie on 01257 263678 for further details (Sorry if this is thread jumping but I need to get this information around quickly - hope you don't mind Ali)

Enjoyed all the music tonight - didn't count all the tracks that were played but I don't think it made the dozen so Les Bond's record is safe for another week!

Vin - I'll look forward to getting it whenever.

Cheers

Mark
