Quite a weekend for us travelled on overnight train with a carry out of beer and some sandwiches. Pub during day, sat in Hyde park sipping beer, concert at night, slept in Euston station in a safe area with olice ensuring pickpockets were kept at bay from the sleeping Scots. Very much appreciated by us all. Train home in morning. Quite an event. Dave 1 Quote

Lived in a tower block and they used to organise bus trip and nights out. We went as a family. My Dad was a big fan of his comedy and my mother enjoyed his singing and piano playing. Also saw Francie a Josie (Rikki Fulton) Good old Glesga humour. Dave Quote
