One door closes......

If you haven't heard, we have had to cancel George Haslam's gig at the Home Sweet Home on October 18th, and the later ones, because of lack of commitment from the new publican. George took it philosophically. "Pubs have closed after I have played", he said, "but none to avoid me appearing". The frequent demise of pubs and publicans should make us appreciate the continuity we've experienced because of Sue Robson's efforts at the Red Lion. Our session on November 1st will be our 22nd month. Hope you will make it.
