Come along!

If I still lived in Harrogate I would be there! Unfortunately I left Harrogate for London in 1980 and then London for Australia in 1986... However if I still have any friends/acquaintances in the Harrogate or Knaresborough folk scene, I take this opportunity to say hi... (or Leeds or Oxford for that matter)! Best regards from Tony Rees in sunny New South Wales, Australia.

It's nice to see that some of the old names are still playing and listening to folk.Back in the early 70's I helped Dennis Ward the barber run the club at the Studley in Ripon and at the services club in Harrogate. I still like to follow what's going on but play a little ukulele for my own entertainment now as well as teaching grandsons a little when we get the chance. There is a club in Ripon again we must try to support it when this trouble is over.
