Great evening at St.Mark's for a family barn dance. A sold out event with a good mix of ages.
Galopede, Buffalo Gals, Flying Scotsman amongst others were danced and everyone had a great time.

Still not quite got used to the fact that we have an account here, hence the silence!
Had a busy few weeks through Jan and Feb, a good burns night out in Woodgreen , Hampshire plus a couple of private functions with the Ceilidh band and a new pub to perform at in Southampton with the Trio .
Of course us folkies know that Hang Man was a reinvented version of the song Prickle Eye Bush, which itself was brought back to prominence by Spiers and Boden...

Had a great afternoon yesterday thanks to SamandSound and Wayland’s Sixpenny Brewery .
An 'open mic' afternoon that really turned into short gig for ourselves, Matt accompanied by Steve and then a little 'Jam' session with Steve, Sam and Robbie. They did an unrehearsed version of 'Hang Man' by Zep
