Just to cheer you up.

Nice!

And since we're on that sort of thing (although I couldn't find a decent recording of 'Scarecrows')

Yes, I love this one, too. I'm not into downloads, I prefer hard CDS, but I actually bought the download of this when it first came out.

Being top end hi fi freaks we also much prefer CD's if not 12" discs!

BTW had you noticed that Nick Dow has a new album out? The first in ages. Steve Turner also has a second new one just released.

These guys along with Nic Jones were a huge influence on me back in the day :o)

Nice to hear that. I haven't seen Nick Dow for... probably twenty years... not since he used to do the Radio Lancashire folk programme.

I know Nick's wife, Mally, hasn't enjoyed good health for some years and Nick also got into restoring vardos (Roma bow topped caravans) so he could work at home to be with her. Mally is Romani and I had an interest in Nick's restorations as well as I also have that ancestry a couple of generations back.

Vardos are beautiful. The place I used to ride when I was at college had one in the yard - apparently in working order but I never saw it used.

I am most heartened by that. *loves John Tams*
Thank you!
