This is one lady that should not be missed, a delightful person and a very good singer indeed. Sorry I live so far away and cannot make the evening.

How lovely to find this, many thanks Terry!

Thanks too, Alan & Hamish for your kind words!

I'm really looking forward to Thursday at Maidenhead, it's a lovely welcoming club full of good friends. I've had a good look though my 'songbag' and hopefully there'll be something for everyone!

Oh, Nigel - LOL!

Thanks Terry, and everyone also who was at Maidenhead last night, it was wonderful to hear you all singing and harmonising.

I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and was delighted that I'd been invited to sing there again. I 'think' I only managed to mix up one set of lines and just a couple of hesitations but my attempt to change 'blackfly' to 'horsefly' for Pearl's benefit didn't work *sigh*

Just in case anyone is interested, here are the songs I sang:

The Snows they Melt the Soonest - Thomas Doubleday.
The Higgler - Tony Franklin.
Gordon's Song - Byony McGinty.
Down Boys Down - Barrie Temple.
The Swallows - Vicki Williams.
Beachcomber - Simon Cowe.
The Dutchman - Michael Smith.
The Bergen - Jez Lowe
Thaney - Karine Polwart.
Wayfaring Strangr - ??
Jenny Greenteeth - Nicole Murray.
Hunting Witches - Maureen McGuinness.
Regret - Lynne Heraud.
You are There - Brian Bedford.
Go with a Smile - Brian Bedford.
Where Ravens Feed - Graeme Miles.

Many thanks again to Maidenhead Folk Club for giving me the opportunity to sing!
