Oops Georgiansilver, thought you said Skiffle Tarts!
People leave because we finish at 11.30 (as requested by the management) and the skiffle doesn't start until after that! Don't want to upset the staff! Maybe if the skiffler arrived at the start (like the rest of us)instead of halfway through the night...............he's not called The Midnight Cowboy for nothing?

Surely thats not skiffle that he plays.
You need a washboard and a wooden box with strings in it for the base.
He tries to be a Donavan or Bob Dylan and I don't class them as skiffle.
Surely the best skiffle group was Lonnie Donegan and he is nothing like that.
Maybe he should be made to do a 3 number floorspot at the beginning or be banned from playing for ever.

Don't forget folks...if you are anywhere near Gainsborough on Friday evening at around 8.30 onwards and want some good Folk entertainment...come to the Eight Jolly Brewers...upstairs room for a sing around(or just to watch) and Be Blessed.

We have some pictures of Lucy and Paul on display in readiness for their St Albans 'Spotlight' club appearance on Sunday 18th July

mmmmmmmmmmm

Our club meets at the British Legion on Verulam Road in St Albans, herts every Sunday with a 'Spotlight' guest each week
This week its Rosa's Daughters, n/w Mike Sparks

Doors open at 7.30 and starts at 7.45 and continues with 10 min floor spots till 9.55 when then 'Spotter' goes on till 10.35.
Its a good idea to ring first if you are coming and wish to perform.

The prog for Lucy and Paul's visit is nearly complete!!!

we have a short interval, adm is £3 for everyone + £1 raffle

audience numbers have reached over 20 recently!!!!

The standard of performance is very good but we do encourage all to perform.

Heckling is acceptable behaviour.

Looking forward to some sampler C D

Looking forward to doing a few for you on the 18th July, (don't forget my spot!) and supporting Lucy & Paul, although compared to the highly talented and lovely Lucy I'm very much the Beast (as in Beauty and the...!).

Breezy, I don't think you want a piccie of Strollin's belly button :-), but I suppose I could take one of it (if he lets me) when I am at Gainsborough Folk Club on Friday and send it you :-)
You've got a great guy for a 20 minute spot there Breezy.

All you need now is Stitherum (mr and mrs Sooze)on the same night - another very good act, who of course run the Gainsborough Club.

Both Strollin and Mr and Mrs Sooze will be appearing as guest artists at Market Rasen in the near future, and have given me fantastic support to get my club up and running.

Can't remember the title, but it was a 'Going home' or 'Leaving' kind of song with some nice twiddly guitar-bits, from the new CD. I haven't got the CD but I've heard Sooz's copy. Nice.

Looking forward very much to coming down. Not sure if I've got a photo that the world would be ready for! If my belly button was in focus, the rest of me would be so far away from the camera it'd just be a blur! Anyway, it's hidden behind me guitar (thank God!).

A lady I know name of SOOZ,
Who I know likes a wee drop of booze.
To our Folk Club will go, come rain hail or snow.
Or might just stay at home for a snooze.

I also know someone called Villan,
Who listens I hear to Bob Dylan.
His favourite stuff, is belly button fluff.
(Do you think he might need penicillin?)

Another friend who we call John,
Has a belly with fluff growing on.
And when Les is about, there is really no doubt,
It's that fluff that he "focusses" on.

Be Blessed all.

There was a skilffler called Lonnie
Whose lyrics were sometimes quite funny
He kept on singing about my old man being a dustman
But he wasn't, he was a busman

He wanted a pub with no beer
But Sooze thought that was a bit queer
So she said come to the Eight Jolly Brewers
Where you can drink real ales here

Strollin' agreed with our Sooz
Do come and try our booze
We open on Friday the 14th
You won't see our Sooz cuase she is having a snooze

But georgian silver says "be blessed all"
To think that Lonnie would come here, what gall
You just be happy and listen to the chappy
who plays at the end of it all

If I come to the Brewers Pub,
Do they serve some decent grub?
I hear the music is great,
I'd enjoy it more if I ate.

You seem like a decent crew,
I'd really like to meet you.
If I come up,can I sing,
Or is that a forbidden thing?

I like your humour too,
Georgiansilver,Les,John and Soo(z).
So I'll come up just for the crack,
If it's crap, I'll never come back.

Hope I can make it on Friday...what time please?

I can say this in all honesty.
Gainsborough Folk Club is a very friendly environment with lots of good humoured patter, and above all Mr and Mrs Sooz have built up a club that would be the envy of most, with a bunch of local excellent singers. They encourage anybody to sing or spout verse etc, and if it hadn't been for them Lucy and Paul would probably not be where they are today.
They also have a lot of very loyal listeners.
I really enjoy going along and listening and keep on coming away, amazed at the quality of local Lincolnshire folkies.

Dead Rabbit

One afternoon while doing some work in the garden I noticed my dog dragging something under the fence. Upon inspection, to my dismay, I realized it was the next door neighbors' daughter's rabbit. For years I had watch her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the garden. I knew today would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast.

The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it off with the hose, combed it with the Dog brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower. Upon finishing its grooming I jumped the fence and replaced back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as "natural causes".

Within the hour the neighbor's car pulled in and out popped the little girl, and as usual she headed straight for the cage. Only this time she stopped about six feet away and screamed "DDDDDAAAADDDDDDDYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Her father, panic stricken, stood looking at the cage. Being the good neighbour that I am I rushed to fence and asked if there was anything I could do.

Her father less than calmly blurted, "What kind of sick individual would dig up a little girl's dead rabbit and put it back in it's cage?"

A man was driving along the highway, and saw a rabbit hopping across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the rabbit, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of the car and was hit. The driver, being a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulled over to the side of the road, and got out to see what had become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead. The driver felt so awful, he began to cry. A woman driving down the highway saw the man crying on the side of the road and pulled over. She stepped out of her car and asked the man what was wrong. "I feel terrible," he explained, "I accidentally hit this rabbit and killed it." The woman told the man not to worry. She knew what to do. She went to her car trunk, and pulled out a spray can. She walked over to the limp, dead rabbit, and sprayed the contents of the can onto the rabbit. Miraculously the rabbit came to life, jumped up, waved its paw
at the two humans and hopped down the road. 50 yards away the rabbit
stopped, turned around, waved and hopped down the road, another 50
yards, turned, waved and hopped another 50 yards. The man was
astonished. He couldn't figure out what substance could be in the
woman's spray can!! He ran over to the woman and asked, "What is in
your spray can? What did you spray on that rabbit?" The woman turned
the can around so that the man could read the label. It said:

A very nice night, enjoyed it immensely, and that enjoyment was heightened and enhanced by the presence and performances of Padgett and Clive - new faces to me but I hope we'll see them again (and again and again, as the song goes!). Also by Jane (she of the lovely voice) who proved beyond all doubt that you don't have to be 18 and flash your belly-button to be a rising star - some 'mature' 'uns have talent and beauty too! Sorry Villan, couldn't resist that one! :0) :0)

Sorry for the bugger-up of 'Dark-Eyed Molly', but I astonished myself that, having consumed copious quantities of the Landlord's finest, I managed 'Annachie Gordon' without consulting the hymn-book! Ripper!

Plus no skiffle, and weren't the squawkers in the other room quiet too!

Up early this morning Strollin'.

Jane will be singing next week at Market Rasen. I agree with you entirely that Jane has a very nice voice and that is why I asked her to play at Market Rasen.

Can't agree with you about your inference to Lucy. It's not about belly buttons, it's about pure talent. She has a wonderful voice and is going far together with Paul. Her voice speaks for itself.

Now lets talk about you then. You are a very talented, have a lovely voice and I like many others, could listen to you alnight. If I went on looks, you woudn't be playing at Market Rasen and I woudn't be running the club. :-) I still need photo's and profile from you in order to let people know who you are. If people don't know who you are, they are not going to get off their arses to listen to you.

Need the same for Stitherum.

My policy about youngsters is that unless you give them a break and encourage them into the folk clubs, then in 20 years time Folk Clubs won't exist, because all the artist's will be dead. I think it is called inclusion. Something Gainsborough is very good at(Lucy and Paul). They like Gainsborough becuase of its freindly atatitude and inclusion.

Wouldn't it be nice if every good Folk Artist had to take a young group under their wings and help them along the yellow brick road.

Both my daughters who are almost 9 and 13 have never been exposed to folk music until I started Market Rasen 2 months ago. They are now very enthusiastic and want to go to each event. At Moor and Coast, they went to the Ceiledh night and my 13 year old is now hooked on the dancing.
My older daughter was very dissapointed last night, because I coudn't bring her along to Gainsborough Folk Club. Pub rules I believe. That doesn't help get them in at an early age.
Woudn't it be nice if every parent that goes to Folk Clubs, is forced to bring their children, so they get to know what Folk Music is about at a young age.

There you go, that's started the morning off well. :-)

Gonna have me breakfast now. Grilled Rabbit Slice with eggs and tomatoes. :-)

Hi Les, Thanks for concern. I was ill last night or at least in the afternoon and went to bed at 5pm, woke at 8pm and decided to conserve energy for a 15 mile hike on Kinder Scout today(which was a struggle)
Will be at M/R on Friday and look forward to seeing you,
Best wishes, Mike.

Villan, I don't care what the Funk & Wagnall of Emoticons says, :0) is me smiling, :0) :0) is me smiling a lot and :0( is me snarling! With my name :0) means I'm being friendly.

GS, you should have come to the 8JB, conserved some of the amber nectar and written Kinder off! You missed a cracker of an evening. Some excellent stuff and some new(ish) faces. Great evening!
:0) (that's me smiling).

Maybe John but you know how it is with friends..If I had let them down today I might not have been asked again...First time hiking with them. Sorry to have missed a good night at 8JB but did not feel well last night anyway. 8JB is the highlight of my week usually and really was peeved to miss it...
Be Blessed.

No problem GS, I'd have enjoyed a day in the hills myself today but I was on bag-carrying duty for a wife-on-a-mission in Lincoln High-Street. Oh joy!

Strollin'
He he. I guess i am going to have to translate what you mean into what emoticons means. I don't have a problem with that, he he.
You are such a good singer, how can I not bend and scrape to your demands. Your a good bloke Strollin'. Can't do without you. Honest.

GS
Sorry to here that. I am sure you would have made it if you had a pint of the gunger din. that would have stopped it. :-)

Lets constipate on next Friday at MRFC. Looks like another good un.

Trying to get George Papavgeris up here shortly for your pleasure. :-)
Strollin' do you want to put George and his wife up. That way you can play all night with him. Only joking about the accomodation.

Must stop drinking this Chardonnay, even the Euro contest is beginning to sound good. :-(

Les, I reckon the problem is that you're a technophile whereas I'm a technophobe. You have the knowledge and do things the text-book way, I just guess and do what feels good! I may not choose the correct method, but I know what I mean!
See you Friday
