I'm hoping to get over mine enough to head for the Shanty Sing in Portsmouth NH on Saturday. At present there aren't many sessions locally so I hate to miss one. Overdosing on the hot lemon and honey at present and just glad there is no need to go out right now - it's been snowing most of the day.

If it's any consolation Jacqui, I've got a snorter! Does help the voice for those Stan Rogers impersonations though! (LOL)

Good to meet you both and looking forward to the next time.

Thanks to you all for the kind words and the wonderful welcome. I had to move 3000 miles away to start getting to know some more UK mudcatters! Just goes to show how much work can interfere with your social life!

We came back to snow and it's still there, with more threatened for tomorrow. We've both got colds, which is a good excuse for not going out unless essential, but Kendal was glad to get back to his own bed and to see his dog, Seamus, again.

I'm now planning a quick trip to Florida at the end of the month, when my son is on holiday there. Looking at the temperatures there at the moment it will be quite a contrast to the weather in Maine.

That cough did worry me quite a bit but, by making sure he rested, drank plenty of fluids and stayed away, as far as possible from smoke he managed.

He's now pretty good and I'm down with a cold, but at least I have the luxury of not having to do anything at all and Kendall's looking after me now. That's what you call teamwork!

Well, we got back to Maine yesterday and into the snow!

Our journey home wasn't particularly good - the flight we booked from Washington to Partland was non-existant and we weren't told about that until we got to Washington. As a result we had a four hour wait for the next flight and that did not please the Cap'n! On unpacking the bags this morning we found that the wheel on one of the brand new holdalls had been smashed off, ending up INSIDE the bag! We're now told by the airline that, while they will repair the bag they won't get the wheel fixed and they won't pay for a new bag. Added to that, they now charge for wine on their transaltlantic flights!!! Don't think we'll be flying with United Airlines again!

On the plus side we met more Mudcatters around and about the UK, all of whom made us feel so welcome. Thanks to you all, friends old and new, you made the trip a really great experience. I'm only sorry that Kendall wasn't well enough for us to get to see more of you - hopefully we can put that right next time.

Giok - A place just south of Glasgow - can't say too much - there are some folk that the Cap'n wants to surprise.

We can't make it up to you this time although we both want to get farther north at some point.

LTS - just picked up your post - didn't show before - unfortunately we'll still be in Newark and getting ready to head up to Scotland for a concert that Kendall wants to go to. Otherwise we would have been there like a shot!

Date: 12 Dec 04 - 01:17 PM

Well, we've been here almost two weeks. We're now in Newark but travelling back down south tomorrow - things to do at the house.

So far we've been to sessions at the Bull at Barton, the Black Lion in Plaistow, the Lion in Eastwick and had a session at my empty house when the Millstream told us that they couldn't accomodate us in December due to the Christmas trade. We've just got back from a very select session at The Strugglers Inn in Lincoln - seems sickness kept the organiser away and only four of us in total turned up, but had a good time.

We're hoping to be at Waltham Abbey tomorrow evening, if we have the energy, and then at the Bull in Bennington on Tuesday evening. We're travelling back up to the Midalnds on Thursday to hopefully make the session in NW Leicestershire and then to Gainsborough on Friday evening. Saturday - flake out - Sunday a session in the Sheffield area. Then it's a case of finding out what is going on in the area around Newark in Christmas week and whether we will have the energy for any further sessions!

It has been great meting new Mudcatters and we hope that we can meet a few more before we head off back to the States in January.

If you're in the south on 27th Dec and still sitting on the child, bring him over to our house and he play with Limpit whilst we have a session. House is smoke free and there will be food.

Dave - we'll be in Uplawmoor for a concert on 29th December and travelling back down south on the 30th. Is that when you're going to France? We'd love to meet up with any Mudcatters on the way back down south, probably by way of Manchester.

I'm of to la belle France on the 30th but if you happen by Manchester on your way north of the border on the 29th the cap'n is more than welcome to borrow a nice sounding but cheap box from me for the duration! Let us know and you are of course welcome to break your journey with a night or day at Chez Gnome!

Haddenham sounds interesting and we might make it if we're not totally flaked out.

We fly in on Tuesday night, stay in Shepperton overnight and then travel down to Southampton to pick up the car the next morning. Straight back up to Hertford for a spot of house clearance Wednesday and Thursday and a day's sightseeing in London on Friday with my daughter and family. Out that night with good friends in Hertford.

Can you give me some more details please Kitty - I'm not even sure where Haddenham is!

Thanks Pixie and Alan. Offers gratefully accepted.

EP - we plan to get into London at least one day during our stay and to get together with you.

At the moment the first thing we have to do is help my daughter clear my house before completion on, we hope, 10 December. Once that is done we will be able to work out where we are going to be and when. As I will no longer have the house we will need to stay with friends close to Hertford/London and this has to be arranged as well.

Sooz - Gainsborough is on the list of wants - we'll be there if we can - especially since it's non smoking!
