Hi Richard

I seem to have aquired a few white plastic picnic plates.Are they yours ? If not, they may be mine, as I have some like that. However, I don't remember bringing them to Lower Coke last week.

I have March 8th down for Rogering Choristers. If this is still on, I can give you back the plates then.

I've picked up a chest infection and can barely breathe, let alone sing.

I'm afraid it's going to be a weekend at home with the emergency antibiotics (good name for a band?...maybe not!)

Richard, while you have RC4 there, how about sounding them out for a visit to the Vigo Easter Folk & Ale

I'm hoping that you might get the van out and join us yourself.

New batch of chutney made today. I whacked in loads of spice, and added a green pepper to the red onions. I upped the sugar content too. First tastew seems sweeet on the tongue, but kicks one in the back of the mouth. Should go nicely with the squidge! Shall I ask Mr Leopard to make some bread. I can reccomend his herb bread.

It certainly was a good afternoon followed by excellent hospitality chez Bridge. Shame mpore of you can't stay longer. Still we did justice to the squidge, and Richard should not be having it all week this time.

Do you think that we could get the girls along next time ? Folk Clubs need young blood.

Sorry we arrived at Bridge Towers a little late, we were enjoying our session so much that we went round and then had one for the road. (Song, that is... Kemp Owen... Scottish, traditional, and quite long.)

Those little girls were really enjoying the music too. Lovely to see that.

That will save about half a barrel for the rest of us!

Has Dean managed to extract his foot yet? Your noble attempt to divert attention to beer contained a bit of a faux pas too, by starting with "Eeny meeny miney mo" - I could see Angelle ITCHING to deliver the next line. Alas she is unable to be with us this Sunday either - but she is working on getting an elderly relative of hers (also Scottish - a very spry 84) along to the next one: apparently he used to sing in a barbershop quartet and IIRC he also plays moothie.

What a change since the new management.

Prior to that, you couldn't sell real ale with green stamps, except on winter sings. Now it doesn't hang around for long enough.

Unless we get struck by the dreaded lurgi again. T D L will be there. Mr Leopard's voice is much better than it was last Saturday. This Saturday he plans to bake some oink bread with some of my Christmas gammon. It is infused with cloves. To accompany the bread, there will be cheeses, pickles (including gherkins with red chillis ), and plates and all that parafanalia. Probably bring the butter too.
