I haven't heard much about her since the 90s, and I have a very vague memory that she died - but I hope I'm wrong, and that someone will turn up on this thread and put me right. |

She’s had a successful career as a children’s songwriter, working in schools, in East London. She has several songs on Sing Up!... still going strong and a very talented lady. |

She used to visit Edinburgh around the early eighties and played at Edinburgh Folk Club from time to time. She also did some Fringe gigs if I recall correctly. I may still have the "No more sad goodbyes" album in my collection. |

We used to meet up in the early 70's around Chelmsford in Essex where she performed around the clubs. She may recall Rod Miller and Bob Woolley from the Essex County Council Staff Club They were the ones who hitch hiked across Europe Iran Afghan India and down to Tasmania where we both now live Cannot seem to connect with the Forest Roots site on FB So if any one could assist in an address for me to make contact I would be grateful rodjmiller@netspace.net.au |
