Hello there, I just wanted to say again how much we enjoyed having you come up over the weekend. Two great gigs that deserved more punters, but were a real pleasure anyway. I hope we'll see you back up this way before too long! Love to the folks too, Jasper.

Hi John,
It was nice to see you perform in Slough.I didn't even start to learn to play guitar until I was 20!So you are way ahead of me!
Sorry I didn't stick around to talk but I had been ill for three days-and literally had to go home to my sick bed!
God Bless,
Tim.
