Well, why we're on the subject of bands a few friends of mine have set up a p**s take Northern Folk Band called....wait for it, The Lancashire Hot Pots

You can find details here: http://www.myspace.com/thelancashirehotpots

Think it'll raise a smile :-)

Fab - I LOVE them - though think they should have been called Bettys lancashirehotpots

Wish they had been playing this last weekend - I'd have gone to see them as I was in St Helens most of the weekend (family live there)

St Helens, that's my home town......it's a small world

[kathynewman]

I was actually born and brought up in Newton Le Willows - grandparents lived in St Helens and Dad worked pretty much all his life at Pilkingtons. Mum & Dad moved back to St Helens 20 years ago, youngest sister moved back there 5 years ago and middle sister moved on Friday from Warrington back to Newton Le Willows. I'm the odd one out in that I live in the south!

That's the current CD in the car at the moment. Highroyds was just down the road from Mrs Jont's old house and is as scary as hell .. apparently the bus from Leeds used to take a detour round there at night and everyone would sit clutching the seat in a slight nervous terror
