Top o’ the mornin’ to ye, begorrah, and similar nonsense.

As I’m a bit pushed for time today, I’ll keep this short – just the edited highlights.

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin…

Best moment from Saturday night’s traditionally lively gig at the Queen Vic in Stroud; Rosa’s rather bizarre request to the audience between songs, somewhere in the second set…

“Right everybody, what I want you to do now is to look at the person on your left… and lick their face!!”.

This was immediately followed by another announcement,

“AAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYUUUUUUURRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!”

Rosa had forgotten that Ben was standing to her right.

We don’t think she’ll be asking the audience to do that again in a hurry. As I write this, she is probably still scrubbing her face with wire wool and bleach.

Sunday afternoon, and we saunter over to the Duke of Edinburgh in sunny Swindon for a gentle couple of hours fun with the locals – star of the show was the cheery nine-year-old girl who bounced up on stage and boogied away the second set with us. Luvverly!

Right then, coming up next…

Saturday 16th – The Locomotive, Swindon
A new one for us, and unusually it’s a 10pm start (although apparently they want us to finish by midnight, so we may well start a little before then to cram a bit more in). We’ll let yáll know how it goes…

Right, time’s up, I gotta go…
