Hi Gordon,
What a delightful little venue - Oozing with historic character, great acoustics (to my untrained ear anyway),but largely uncontaminated by an audience - I can't think why. It must be soul destroying to play to so many empty pews.
My son and I travelled down from Northamptonshire and were not disappointed by a thoroughly enchanting performance from you and Ray - the jocular banter between you punctuating some pieces that I had not heard played live before. And you were right in your comment Gordon; Ray's guitar did sound wonderful. Even Graham, my son - a guitarist who leans towards the heavy metal/thrash genre - was drawn in.
We didn't hang around after the performance as Graham had an early start on Sunday, but my wife, Fiona , and I will say hello on the 29th November at Shuttington Vllage Hall.
Thank you Gordon and Ray for the pleasure - nay,the joy - that your music brings. May your candles of life burn slowly.
Keith
