Try B98 4JX: that is in Redditch. B29 4JX is 12 miles away in Weoley Castle, Birmingham

Well unless there are two places called the same in Redditch, then this would appear to be the location.

St Lukes Memorial Hall Evesham Road, Redditch, Worcestershire, B97 4JX 01527 450245

Redditch is a nightmare to drive around. Once you are in, you can't find your way out.... round and round you'll go... on and on. Take overnight things and be prepared to sleep in the middle of a roundabout till dawn!

Have fun Dunc, sorry I can't be there, but I'll be 50 miles away at the re enactment of the Battle of Tewkesbury.

I'll be there, making a detour on my way home from Oxford.

Have taken Ms lemon's advice - accommodation is booked - but as it's in Redditch I might just have a problem finding that as well!. Looks like there are plenty of roundabouts to choose from though. ;-)

We used to visit our Folkie freinds in Redditch and it was always a problem getting the route correct.

So yes Deirdre, plan it properly or you might rue the day.

And if it was a Redditch in France would that B 96?


Don't even mention Red Itches.

Nice to know they are still going anyway.

But did they have genuine lemons at the Battle of Tweeksburg?

Miss Lemon, it was a great evening. None of us got lost (surprisingly) and the music was excellent. Duncan and Anne were joined by Mr Gerry McNeice, doing a fine job adding a bottom line and dancing with his string bass.

(I hadn't seen your post Dunc, I'd already left for Oxford!)

So, tomorrow, it's the full electric band at Brown Cow, Mansfield.

Yippee!

I'll miss FATE as well but I am seeing the acoustic band the evening before at The Courthouse, Otley, so perhaps he'll forgive me.

T'was indeed a damn fine evening. I had a great time so big thanks to Dunx, Anne and everyone else involved.

I got to Priddy at 3:00am and slept in a layby just outside the village (in the van of course). T'was a great day - sunshine, lovely people, great music.

See you on Friday at The Courthouse.

Gerry :-)
