SINGING IN THE HEAT!!

OK - so 3 weeks ago, we posted to say that summer was over, rain till next March etc. etc., and what happens - we only go and get a blinking heatwave don't we?!



Now don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining - spending the back end of September/front end of October in temperatures of 25+ degrees is perfectly OK by me; however, the White Lion in Disley on a hot and sweaty Friday night is certainly a challenge - even with the big fan!

As usual , the crowd was small, but perfectly formed; it was great to see Andrea, Ally, Ian and Roger there - we really do appreciate you coming all the way out to the wilds of Disley to support us, and we hope you had as good a time as we did.


Ray, the landlord, did us proud - not only did he provide 6 lots of fish and chips for us to eat at 1:00am, but he also lent Paul his suspect t-shirt from last year, after he was told we had a pic of it, and were undecided as to whether it would offend or amuse. After much deliberation, I've decided to let you make your own minds up, so here goes (it's Ray in the photo by the way, not Paul!)........






So, the first leg of our pub mini-tour is put to bed, and the next leg happens next Saturday (8 October) and, as previously trailed, it sees us at The Millstone in Water's Green, Macclesfield. The fair should have buggered off by then, so that's one lot of competition sorted out, and we can easily de-rail whoever's playing at the Nag's Head! As mentioned before, it would be great to see everyone down there, and we will try and go for maximum audience participation (makes it easier on us too!).


Dave is on holiday this week (quite right, I hear you say - he deserves a break!), but we are pushing ahead with practice on Thursday - looking at new songs like "Never Looking Back". "There's a Man Works Down the Chipshop...," "Should I Stay or Should I Go?", "Copperhead Road" etc. etc., so at least some of them should be ready to air in the very near future, if not on Saturday!

Make the most of the sunshine - oh wait, it's p*ssing down! :-((

PS: Just about to pass the 5000 visitor mark for this piece of literary genius - thanks (and apologies!) to everyone who takes the time to read it!
