Thanks go to those who found time to click a few buttons...
Happy new Year Lance-a Lot! Wishing you a healthy harmonious 2014. Hope to see you again before long.
Happy New Year Lance & keep up the good work. My favourite gig of 2013 was Gwilym Simcock at Zefferelli's in Ambleside in August. Fantastic music from a top man in an intimate, friendly venue.
Just seen your gig choices Lance - thanks!
