| Following Sally's sudden death last year, and Martin Britnell's problems with his health, I must officially announce that our ceilidh band - Mr Gubbins' Bicycle - will not play again.
BUT..... Plans are afoot for a new family based dance band, which will include some former members of Mr Gubbins, and, er, one or two other people. While negotiations are still being conducted at the highest level, it is impossible, for various legal reasons, to reveal any more than these bare details at this stage. Watch this space....... |
