Hi Folks,

 

I regret to say that we shall not have Richard Grainger with us tonight.  As I told some of you last night, he had warned me about the snow forecast for last night and this morning. Unfortunately it has proved accurate, he is well and truly snowbound and unable to get out of his village.

 

For those who don't know, Richard lives in the village of Commondale in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors.  As he put it, there are three roads out of the village and each one starts with a hill!  The snow has been so heavy that the weight of it has brought down a tree in his garden. and nothing is getting in or out of the village at present. 

 

I intend to start as for a guest night at 2015 tonight, hopefully all the floor singers will still be able to make it and I would ask them all to be prepared to do a slightly longer spot.  If those who were not doing a floor spot tonight would be kind enough to bring their instruments with them we will take it from there with a slightly amended singers night.

 

Don't forget the earlier start, see you there.

 

Regards
