I've just come across this definition of me in a London Paper web ad; "Veteran traditional folk singer-songwriter". Right....gloves on!!!! :) |

I heard you for the first time recently at Grimsby Folk Club and I enjoyed your songs so much that I bought your CD. I like the definition! If you fit in a bracket you are the same as everyone else, if you don't, you are not accepted by some....I guess the best plan is to just carry on doing things your way and smile! |
