Disaster has struck. Iv'e lost the tapes from the last meeting
and only have hurried notes from the previous one so I can't
do full justice to what were very enjoyable nights in this report.

Moorleyman became poorly man at the last meeting after a distinguished first appearance,he travelling about 100 miles to be
with us. From our point of view it was well worth it . Thanks Dave . Apologies were received from him for the last meeting for he had the dreaded lurgy.

Carol gave us a lesson in latin with nunctus domino and Mike Wray
who had also travelled a fair distance, thanks Mike, followed with
a marvelous version of Beeswing

Mike and Sue Dewsbury brought a Christmas touch, as it was the
19 dec.with memories of the first world war, when the troops chose not to fight but to play football instead. There was not a sound in
the room, such was the feeling they put into it.

Moorley man then made his welcome debut with a happy Wassail song
and Joan Smithson accompanied herself on guitar with Silent Night
followed by husband Chris. who played his ever popular Leaning on
a Gate.

Carol, in all innocence, not knowing she was nicking Eric's christmas song,sang Little boy that Santa Clause forgot. For that she was
awarded an Onararey. Derogatory.

Albert Deakin came next with Gypsy woman and John Windle sang an
appealing song which went unnamed.

Eric then lowered the festive tone of the whole evening with his
self penned version of Little boy that Santa Clause forgot. Enough
said about that.

JK, again in all innocence, gave us one of Eric's sacred songs,
Fourpence a Day, of the lead mines in Swaledale and reluctantly
I have to admit she made a good job of it.

Mike brought the meeting to a close with a happy song, reminicent
of Navvy Boots On, which told the story of a sailors encounters in
port.
                                 Next meeting,Mon.16 Jan. 8pm.
                                 Old School Inn
                                 Battle Green
                                 Epworth.

Your right SJ. That was to be my next Do You Know.
I have kept Sooz informed of my advances in that direction.
I met Kath.at her Scunthorpe gig when she expressed a wish
to revisit her old home, She also said the same on Radio Lincs. I offered her accomodation with an old friend of her family.
She said this was fine.
Since then I have had to contact her through her agent who
said she would contact me when Kath. was in the area. I have
sent her two emails since then with little response.

We live in hopes!.

Eric,

Sorry I couldn't make it this evening - afraid that mundane life things got in the way.

Hope it went well.

Sorry I couldn't make it last night Eric, I was at a meeting 40 miles away till nearly 10.30 pm so didn't get across. But the good news is that the lurgy has just about left me I think, I'll test it when I next get to sing out.
Hope all went well, see you next time.
All the best,
M

To BusyBee and MoorleyMan

We missed you, get when you can. Thanks for letting me know.

There were other misfortunes too, Albert had a migraine and
had to leave early but we had a great success when Danny
played Greensleeves in classical style and Jane treated us to some
new songs.

Hope this gets through. The Computer is poorly, it has to be looked at so I may be off air for a while.

      So Long,
                   Eric.

Thanks Jim and Dave but it's my "personal messages", in red, at
the top of the page that's gone missing. Theres just nothing there.

It may need someone to send me one to restore them. I don't
know, but this hasn't happened before.   ??????????????

To Sooz,

How have I become a guest? I have received about 10 messages
previously, one from Joe, but within the last few days they have all
gone. As far as I know I have done nothing that I havn't done in the past few weeks.

The only thing I've noticed is that there isn't an automatic
nname in the "From" panel on the "Reply to thread" window as I think there was previously.
I have to type my name in.

Something else I've noticed over the last few days is that
the DELETE option dosn't appear at the bottom of my permathread messages. I havn't been able to delete anything recently

                                           Eric.
