24th January - The Royal Oak, Chipping Sodbury, Glos.
There were (1) cheers in the air tonight. Or was it (2) tears. Although mostly (3) beers.
Yes, I'm quite please with that.
(1)
A good rockin' night with the usual splendid reception from the crowd, including dancing, singing, shaking
of hands and awe.
(2)
This was
Leaky's final gig with the band before his departure to a different country. Surrey. And believe me, it is the hardest word. After
a brief speech and the presentation of a beautiful commemorative picture he carried on, holding back the tears until the end.
(3)
It's a pub you slappywags!!!
18th January - The Farmhouse Inn, Yate, S. Glos.
A new venue jam packed full of young people. Some almost as old as thirty'ish. Luckily
the band, with it's combined age of 453 years old, were not swayed and put on their normal legendary performance and stole
the hearts, souls, virtues and wallets of everyone looking in the other direction. They also noticed a romance in the
air for two regulars but can't say anymore. Yet. Mwa wa wa!!!!!!!!!!
12th January - The Bristol Inn, Clevedon, N. Somerset
Great fun night out for all. Apparently the last band to play were a duo, a laptop computer and some cheesed
off punters. Never mind, we can't all be as fantastic as the Goldfish. Plenty of the usual clapping and attractive ladies
dancing and singing. Will it ever end? Apparently.
