Hope it is good. I will be thinking of you all while I am sat in the sunny (ha,ha) North East. Hope that you have your passports.

Enjoy yourselves, I know the crowd will really enjoy your performances. Hope you sell some of those excellent CD's...

All the best.

Midge repellant will be nae good. They are trained to attack Englishmen

As an Englishwoman I might therefore get away with it!

But I suspect not........

Make sure you take some anti-histamine tablets, they will help keep the swelling down slightly, but those scottish midges are sure vicious.......

Enjoy, I'll be thinking of you

Wow, what a weekend!. Thanks guys for letting me tag along. 3 excellent gigs, pity about the weather and the poor turnout at the Gathering but you did yourselves proud.

Roll on next year when you maybe do it again!.

Get them fish and chip ordered now!.

Thanks BBP - grand DMcF band Scottish mini-tour indeed.

The 2 inches of rain overnight and torrential downpour
on the morning of the Border Gathering was a bit of a dampener indeed!
The organisers said they only got hundreds where they usually get thousands
- but it came out sunny in the end - and those hundreds had a good un! We sure did!

'Fish and chip'???? Just the one chip, eh?
That's how they do it in Lincolnshire, is it? - hah!
Cheers - Duncan

B*gger! That was just a typo McDunc!.

Imagine the wait if you had to order your meal one chip at a time - Steve would waste away!.

See you all at Otley if not before.
