Life since Whitby

Well, the highlights of the summer were the music events, the walking, eating and drinking!!!!! Lots of lovely times. I’d been invited to do an evening at Chichester Folk Song Club with Dean, but he was unable to make it so I did it on my own……now there’s another story….probably better off on my own although I’ve really enjoyed working with a talented musician….bring on some more please!!!! Then an extended spot at Forest Gate folk club ended the same way….no show Dean…so I did a shortened spot which I didn’t enjoy, because I wasn’t prepared for the way the evening went…Thanks Dean….so that’s the end of that….must have a more professional attitude than that…what a let down all round. I went back to Lewes folk club on Thursday…the first time since before going to New Zealand…where has the time gone!! Jig-Jaw were great. Had a great day at Tenterden folk festival, then sang at the Sail Loft folk club on Sunday evening. That was a fantastic night!  We went to The Nelson to see Tim Broadbent on Monday and I sang, then a singaround at Chichester which was good fun. Wednesday evening was a trip to The Famous Willows, Arundel to see Martyn Wyndham Read and No Man’s Band….great evening and I sang Past Carin with Iris Bishop….really good. Lewes Folk festival saw Black Umfolosi 5 at the Royal Oak tonight…..wow….wonderful. i also did 2 songs which went down really well to a packed room. Lots more music to come this weekend……
