Rhyl Folk Club

With evryone back from wherever, Fred was hard pressed to fit in all the turns. He managed with 5 minutes to spare. There are photos of all the turns but too many to list all the songs etc. You may notice that Barry’s “photo” is heavily modified – the lighting isn’t good and he never stays still for even a nano second so he’s always blurred.

Mike reminded us that it’s 2 years since we lost Sheila; she’s still fondly remembered and he sang 2 of her favourite songs. Barry’s poem about the RSPB garden bird survey was merely an excuse for the line “…my neighbour has Great Tits”.

Terence’s poem about boarding a flight was very close to the truth ie. scum in economy wait till everyone else has boarded.

I’m still eagerly awaiting the arrival of a book I ordered on e Bay a few weeks ago, which I know will improve my financial position; it’s called “How to Scam People Online”.

Alun had removed the double negatives from his John Denver song. Is the collective noun a “Correction” of pedants?

After the Powell twins put themselves on for the last 2 songs, there was just time for the massed band to knock out a final chorus song, which everyone was still singing as they left, and was no doubt still irritatingly there in their heads when they tried to get to sleep.

No club next week as it’s 1st Friday but we’ll be open for business again on September 5th. I’m afraid I’ll be missing for most of September, so no weekly journal. Did anyone else notice that the cracks in the external wall had opened up. Doesn’t look good!
