Yes, we’re well, just difficult not being able to see the extended family - especially missing my wee grandson.

Just checked the schedules - we’re getting more and more of the regular team set up to broadcast or record from home, and I’m filling in some of the gaps. Looks like I will be doing 4-5 tomorrow (Wed) and maybe 3-5 Friday.

Bruce,

I came in from my garden at 3.40 p.m., saw the link, and tuned in just in time to catch the last two lines of John Prine and Iris Dement. Maybe not the track I would have chosen when the weans are off the school :lol:, but thanks for playing them. John Prine is grossly underestimated. I'm also a fan of Iris - like her singing "Our Town".
PT, don't know if you've noticed but John Prine died yesterday.

Was unaware of that Bonzo. Thanks for keeping me posted. I'll make a point of listening to him today.
Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.

The life of John Prine was covered over 2 pages of today's Sun newspaper.

Well done to your daughter Bruce for raising money for the flat.

First hour: http://podcast.canstream.co.uk/celticmu ... p?id=33661
and the first half of http://podcast.canstream.co.uk/celticmu ... p?id=33662

... and that way you get a “fast forward” button for the bits you don’t like :-)
