Hi Steve
Good to see you on Saturday - pity I missed your set with Sandy. Ray and Terry came along after you left, although Terry wasn't playing. Jilly was also there - she wasn't playing, but she was in town to drop Ella off at the Guildhall.
I don't whether you heard about Alan Jeanes. He's in a nursing home at the moment after he had a fall at home. Eileen had a party for him about a month ago. He's OK, but Eillen and others are trying to get him into a more congenial place. Funny you mentioned Geoff Duckworth - he was in touch with a friend of mine recently. He's not doing much music at the moment and wants to get together for a jam.
Hope to see you again soon.
All the best
Richard

[where's T? I forgot to ask], Richard Everett, Jenny Ford, Peter Durbin, the
great Ken Page and Richard Wilshire - and I must say thanks to Sandy Shearer
for inviting me to come and play...((BIG THANKS))...some people were very
noticable by thier absence Terry, Ray and Allan - but of couse it's possible
that they might have come along after i'd left...next time I promise to stay
later...
...I said to Bob as i was leaving that we first met in 1986 -21 years ago in
the BRB, my first trip to Caer Llan was in 1989, good to know the building
is still standing and hasn't slid into the valley -lol- i'm aiming to get
back into the loop at some point - Normandy looks quite cool George ; - )
