Really enjoyed Ireby Festival, and had a nice time at Middlewich Folk &
Boat Festival, working with Fake Thackray; John does an excellent job
With Jake's songs.
I performed a Welsh version of 'Dachshunds with Erections' in Denbigh
Last month. I had to leave lots of pauses while they worked out what was
Going on.
Had my pre-operative assessment in June for the hip replacement, but
Still haven't got a date for the operation. When they eventually tell me,
I'll put something on the web site.
In theory this is a nice quiet month, but they never turn out like that.
There'll be a lot of preparation for Tegeingl Festival next month. It's a
Very interesting line up.
