Hello! thanks for the befriending... Really loved Under One Sky in London, beautiful music! Didn't know you lived in Carnoustie until I read the sleevenotes, an old friend of mine is the same age (roughly ) as you and grew up there too! Don't know any one called Hamish do you? Best wishes, lots of love, Nancy xxx
