It's sad today to see most of the former hospital grounds covered in housing estates...<br /><br />I've just been checking out your blogs. Very interesting, especially the posts about your cycle rides around the Haresfield / Standish / Moreton Valence area - my old stomping grounds :-)Simon B https://www.blogger.com/profile/07719757386457800087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5470510671824637475.post-90073583672438465342012-03-14T22:06:54.312+00:002012-03-14T22:06:54.312+00:00Remarkable, just stumbled on this.

Got any demo tapes?<br /><br />And you're right: being in a band, no matter how bad, ( and we really weren't all that bad... I suppose ) can be Fun with a capital "F".
