Subject: RE: May Press Room (NH) Shanty Sing From: GUEST,Don Hale Date: 24 May 16 - 12:54 PM Of course we read it, Linn! "We" don't always have something to post. With regard to #45, "truncated" was a particularly diplomatic way of putting it! BTW, you wondered how long I've been coming to the Press Room sessions. Since 2006. Time flies when you're having fun!

Subject: RE: May Press Room (NH) Shanty Sing From: Bat Goddess Date: 22 May 16 - 08:42 AM Well, the only Gloucester addition was Martha, but Nick came up from Worcester. Don was there also representing Massachusetts. The Maine contingent was Charlie and Judy and Tami, although Hutch qualifies as Maine even though he lives just across the river from NH. I'll list the whole crew when I list what we sang. Later! Linn |
