Jazz UK

Well, Russell and I submitted our first North East Round-up to Jazz UK and things didn't go quite as planned...
Some typo gremlins got in - through no fault of our own - so it is apologies to the Saville (Savilly), Roly Veitch (Vetch), John Hallam (Halal) and John Hirst (Hirsute).

    OK Lance but no worries over Jazz UK. A bit of a giggle actually.
    I suppose it could have been Savaloy Exchange and Enrico Tomato in which case one would have suspected some fiendish, virus ridden, illicit version of Spellcheck passed around as a computer worm or something. Actually I'm surprised some nurd hacker hasnt thought of some prank like that.
    Its not your fault that happened and in fact I am very appreciative of the fact you and Russell thought it appropriate to give us a mention in the NE Review. I'm very chuffed about that. Honestly, its very much appreciated.

  3. "tea spray" refers to the mess brought on by reading something extremely funny whilst drinking tea at the same time. As I'd read the 'greatest drummer' quote just before, I was very easily amused by the unfortunate typos.
