Holland And Belgium

I know, I haven't had a chance to write for a long time, just too busy and didn't think about it. But we had a great trip to Holland, over to our good friends Liesbeth and Peter. We did a concert in The Trouble Tree folk club on the Friday night, which was really good and well attended, and in fact we have a DVD of it, which I haven't watched yet! Saturday saw us in a most beautiful cathedral in Leiden, Hooglandse of Sint Pancraskerk, where we put on a concert for a birthday party, what a novel idea. I'll upload a photo when I get a chance. And on Sunday, we were driven by Peter and Liesbeth down to Antwerp in Belgium for a lovely little concert in a wonderful venue - Folkclub Den Heksenketel where we met Phillippe Masure, and strangely enough we bumped into Johnny Ringo McDonagh, who was out and about, and that was a lovely surprise, though he missed the concert as he was playing himself somewhere else. As usual every night was spent drinking tea (me and Liesbeth) and Janever (Peter and Graham) and listening to wonderful music of all genres - it was a lovely, comfortable, friendly trip. Thanks so much to L and P for the wonderful hospitality.
