New News Page

Hi there it has been a while since I updated the news page so here I am hard back at it.The New Year got off to a interesting start with Fiona attracting quite a few booking for concerts and Gigs.The first been at Bacup football club some three weeks back now we set off on our way in the car and arrived in good time.When we got to Bacup it was a white out thick of snow which was odd as we had not had any snow at that point., needless to say the event was cancelled till March hopefully the weather will have improved significantly by then.
Then the snow came down thick and fast again and we were unable to get out of the farm a Tractor and a JCB both stuck fast in the thick snow.It all made for a interesting day though

After a morning clearing snow which had been compacted down by the man in his 4 wheel drive next door we managed to get out skidding , and sliding in the end I used the Landrover and engaged 4 wheel Drive and thought well if you cannot beat them join them.

Kate (Fiona Katie) meanwhile prepared to do a event at a local hotal a private party seemingly 30 people invited 15 turned up ironically the 15 that turned up were from abroad makes you wonder how much people use the snow as a excuse when the roads are actually clear . If I had been the host of the party I would have been most annoyed.

Sunday came (8th February) and yet another concert cancelled due to bad weather .
Goodness I thought what are things coming to what happened to the good old day when we used to screw a piece of board to a length of 2 x 1 and make a snow shovel and then drive out . it seems we have forgotten what bad weather is. We have become a nation of fair weather drivers so to speak.

Thankfully we spent the day out and had a lovely time finally arriving home after eating at the Pizza hut we tried out Katies new Microphone before sipping hot Cocoa and going to bed..
