Not a problem my dear.  I was totally happy suggesting you for the gig as I know how competent and versatile your skills are.  NOW WHERE ARE THOSE MALTESERS?????  Anne was here yesterday and she did say that she had been charged with the task of getting some for me but forgot.  We had a great afternoon in glorious sunshine here and bbq in the evening.  Twas indeed a good weekend for me too.  Take it easy.  And, of course, I..ll keep you in mind. xxx

Hey Ian dont be too nice about me, people will never believe you and you..ll lose your street cred. But apart from that, to return the compliment you do a great job in the roots department.

Take care

Hi Ian
Really enjoyed both your sets with Abi, tonight at Caistor. It was a quality night, I thought. Great to hear the variety between songs and the bass and double bass really helped add to that.Thanks!
