We are at the Thompsons Arms in Flaxton now rather than that nice Sam Smiths Blacksmiths Arms pub that you played at.

As an aside it is now a very sad shadow of it's former self.

Lindy - whose wedding you played at - left the pub a while back having had enough and it is now being run by reliefs who couldn't give a #*%& and it is very little used. Apparently Sam Smith's are having great difficulty finding someone to run it. With no proper kitchen to cater and no chance of refilling the pub with music etc and with drinking and driving being what it is these days it is not a great proposition.

Ben (former landlord) and I and some friends who have very fond memories of those good musical times had an evening of reminiscences about it the other night when they came round to our house the other night for a gathering. Still I suppose we wouldn't have still have our livers left...

Sad.

Much too young to retire, Mick. ;)

A shame about the Blacksmiths, Nick. I very much enjoyed my time there. I hope that Ben is happy, but it's very sad to see an excellent pub and music venue go down the tube like that.

And younger people than Mick have been known to retire! See you on Sunday, Mick. Our lass'll be in tow an' all (after our brief sojourn in Whitters).

Congratulations Grandad Rog'

Mick - I posted 'in appreciation' of the session of 1st Jan 2007 - but put it on the 'Beverley Music Support thread' - not the 'exclusive to Monks' one!

Whatever, sorry to miss yesterdays singing! Had to get in some rehearsal time for our gig tonight.

Will we be back in the Sun Inn next Sunday ?

I'm afraid that I won't make the Tuesday evening session in the Monk's tonight.However, I'm sure that lots of others will - last week we had three fiddlers, two mandolinists, two harpists, 1 accordian, 1 concertina, 1 banjo, three guitarists and more whistlers than you could shake a stick at. Oh, and lots of singers too.

Some of the above were the same people!

Always room for more - and audience too.

Carol

I know that I could be out every night of the week in Hull/Beverley and could double up some nights if I took every invitation to play further afield. As it is, I restrict myself to Tuesday and Sunday and I also prefer to play in venues where the beer is decent!

B.... funny when we moved here I didn't realise there wasn't a folk club less than 20 miles away, there's a fishing lake just to the back of our little estate and Chris can't get to fish there, hebeen applied for membership when we moved and he's still 40th odd on the waiting list! Still I do like the place.

I want to know what goes on on the Thursday practice night ??????

Carol have you tried Bill Sables do in Rawcliffe. As to the Thursday night do ????, "It's only for those with the funny handshake and rolled up trousers". ie. me and mississippi getting our stuff together for the new season. Let Chris know that they are getting good catches out of the river Hull on the opposite bank to the pub at hull bridge, on the way to Brid. cheers all Oombanjo.

Sunday 14th Jan in The Sun - getting my apologies in first in case I don't get there. I'm suffering with a really bad chest and throat at the moment and, even if I do get there on Sunday, probably won't be able to sing - could accompany others, though.

Hopr they've got some good beer on in The Monk's. Will be going down to the Tuesday session tonight to check it out and again on Sunday just to make sure that it hasn't gone off in the interim.

Oh, and a bit of playing too

been told there could be some particularily virulent whelks from south ferriby on the runway, but hey! that never stopped me in the past.

Guinness is always good in there Rog, and your playing is always welcome.

They had four fine real ales on last night - I was drinking the Taylor's Landlord Bitter which has gone up to £2.30 which makes it the same price as in The Sun and 20p cheaper than the Corner House.

The Slubber's Arms in Huddersfield had similar, notorious toilets. Following a refurb they mounted one of the cisterns and pull chain on the bar wall as a reminder - it is still there to this day.

Enjoyed the musical break - I escaped from the football on TV at home. It was good to have lots of chorus or sing-along songs today. I particularly enjoyed the 'sensitive' Dylan song from Roy! Sung with feeeeeeling.
Great to have Zoe and Dave back.
