Just a brief note to say Thank-you to everyone who attended our party on Saturday, we had a great time and enjoyed your good wishess and kind thoughts.
Especially thanks must go to Punch the Horse who were awesome, duelling fiddles a speciality, and a big thanks to Richard for stepping into the breach at the last moment, everyone without exception said the band were tremendous, even the non-folkies thought they were brilliant and the Stewardess, bless her little cotton socks, wants them to come and play there again.

Once again Thanks for coming and I cannot express how good the boys and girls of Punch the Horse were

Cheers

Raggytash & Wombat

Many thanks for that Nick. It was an absolute joy of an evening and I was especially pleased it was a success for Chris and yourself.

As you know we play many places over the course of a year, some with a better reception than others. I am sure I can speak for the others when I say that was the high spot of many a long month.That club is fantastic !! I would certainly make tha my local if I lived in Huddersfield.

Again all the best for the future, will see you both at the New year in the Whitby for a bit of song and imbibing and that.

I hope to be in a position to play at your golden wedding anniversary !!

You are very welcome, both. I know we had a great night, Ossonflags told me in bed, despite the snoring. I have just made an inappropriate remark on the other Raggy thread about swellings. So I'll not mention it here.

See you again soon, I hope.

Whats all this about snoring? I told you not to tell any one as it was a closely guarded secret.

As I have posted elsewhere, it was delightful evening, Raggy and Wombat. Thoroughly enjoyable. Many thanks for the invite, and I'm glad you and Chris enjoyed it as much as I know we all did.

David, I'm sure it was you snoring.

See you again soon.

Pete.

Sorry I was absent without leave, late on parade and all that. My afternoon do (piss up) went to tat time when because of Ramadan taxi's were impoosible to get so I missed the 6.40 train, hoped to get 7.40 but bleeding taxi's didn't arrive till 7.45. The wabbitt was not amused and chastised me firmly saying 'Oh what a naught boy I were' Sos Raggy & Chris heard it were good.

Sorry I could not attend; I went to see the Jester in Birmingham.
I'm thinking that maybe you should change your name to Jumbo, Raggytash (that's his family name you know).

Many more happy years to you both

Sorry you weren't blessed with a brace of Ducks but number one daughter came out of hospital and I could hardly ask her to babysit from her sick bed (although it crossed my mind :0)) May the next 25 years be just as happy and we'll get to that party instead!
