Sorry Freda - and George -

We get into Sydney on December 26, so too late for the session. We're there til January 8th, so perhaps something else could be arranged.

Break a leg, George.

Preferably not one of yours.

Speaking of mummers -

El Greko is appearing with the Wheeze & Suck Band & an assortment of Sydney Morris Men who will be presenting their mummers play at Almost Acoustic as they have for the past 3 years. Of course most of the Wheeze & Suck Band are morris men & they are quite mad! And I tell them that all the time.

www.wheezeandsuck.com
Sydneybased 6-piece band who play their own unique brand of traditional English influenced music

Charley Noble & Landlady's daughter saw the Wheezers & the Mummers play on their first visit to sydney in 2001.

It was the one with Moira Craig on - was it The flowers and the guns

Not joking Breezy.

They are giving George's CD away as a write in prize.

The question was Who sung with george on the number.

There will be a quiz also for 2 free tickets for George's gig on November the 19th at Market Rasen Folk Club announced on folkwaves next week

The answer to the person who accompanied George can be sent by e-mail to Lester Simpson on the following e-mail address

Breezy, I told you your imitation of Moira on the album was amazing, but would you believe me - no!

Despite his refusal to become Mudcat's next Toy Boy, George is a treasure and I wish I could be there. Maybe Jacqui ans Kendall will make it. They arrive in London on Dec.1st. Have fun.

I'm waiting for the prize.

This is the same George Papvgeris who is backing vocalist and guitarist in that almost famous folk group from St Albans called 'Windward'

This Friday 12th Nov -when you're all going to Gainsboro to hear and look at Kathryn Roberts who sang a very dubious song bout a lusty smith, to us last Friday - 'Windward' will play in support of Robb Johnson, as will Anahata and Merry Humfry, and possibly Les Sullivan.
at the Duke of Marlborough, St Albans.
