Thanks to everyone for the kind words. It's great to be 'home' again!
Edinburgh and that bloody camper van! I spent the whole fortnight in that thing, along with boxes and boxes of CDs and T Shirts while Steve was performing at The Assembly - Luckily I'd parked it on a broken meter right outside the door of The Assembly, so it didn't cost a penny for the whole time we were there. And then on the final day, as I pulled away, the council turned up with a brand new meter! Happy happy joy joy!
Not as happy as the lady on the top deck of the open top bus that passed one day while I was asleep in the 'upstairs' bunk..... But that's quite another story!
I've spent some great times with a lot of you nutters - Remember the first (and I think only) Fan Convention in London? What a weekend THAT was!
And many many great times with the man himself, when I was lucky enough to be employed by him on tour. Happy memories, and do I miss those days? You bet your life I do.
Reg - Yes, I did start the first official SH website back in the day. So long ago, it was actually hosted By CompuServe - How old does THAT make me feel!?
I didn't make it to any of the recent gigs, the last one I attended was 'CockRock' in Cumbria a couple of years ago, but I intend to put that right asap.
Again, thanks for the warm welcome and it's good to be back
