Don't know what happened there, John. I suspect it was a glitch in the work Max is doing, and some messages got misplaced. I moved the "Aengus" messages to a more appropriate thread.

Glad to say tickets are already selling. I'm also delighted that Helen English (Tony Rose's widow) will be backing up John Waltham on harp, and Sophie Wright will be accompanied by Bob Axford. Please would you copy the Eventbrite link and pass it on to anybody you think may be interested. It looks like the second Gypsy book 'Streaming on.' will be ready, either way, we will be taking advanced orders on the night. Looks like I may get a song or two in myself. You will be made very welcome, and of course, you can pay at the door, but it might be safer to book in advance. All systems go then.

Will John be explaining the Dorset tradition of tractor exhaust communication? It seems to be a case of shouting or singing across the tractor exhaust pipe to use it as a carrier wave!

I sold my tractor last week, sorry. Are you coming then, Robin?

There is a chance that Gypsy-born storyteller Peter Optical (Peter Monk) may join us in Dorchester. I let you know when I know. I've got a good feeling about this event. Please spread the word for me.
Thanks

Unfortunately, the evening has been incorrectly and accidentally advertised as online live. This is untrue, and the Eventbrite link is for in-person tickets only. There is more news coming so keep watching.

Sean Gray has had to pull out due to personal reasons, but will still be at the concert. The tickets are selling rather well. Here is the link again..

We will be having a refreshment bar Tea and Coffee free. There will be some wine and beer, but nobody is going to object if you bring your own drinks. All Books and CDs will be on sale as well.

Mrs. Marina Russell's great-great niece will be attending. Her name is Pat March. We will sing a few of the family's songs no doubt.

We may also have other descendants from Henry Hammonds informants joining us. I am waiting to hear.
