I have fond memories of meeting Alistair during one of his visits to the US way back when.

Wish I could find his old albums on CD.... take this as a hint

Hey Valmai

There are five of us coming from Ox for the Kerr and Fagan workshop and concert. Is there any chance the landlord will let us have a session in his back bar between the workshop and concert?

PS We are all really looking forward to the event!

As for Alistair. Gosh I haven't seen him for years. I'll have to start badgering the OFC cttee to get him back.
