This Friday, 31 October, Friday Folk welcomes Frances Oates and The Turnabouts. As it's Halloween, dancers may like to dress up. Nothing too outrageous, but a subtle combination of orange and black would be the suggested theme. See you there. Regards, Bob Barrett

We have received a message that a shopkeeper in Saltaire, Yorks, has found some lost property belonging to Susan Hall. Do you know her? Apparently she may have some connection with the Hertfordshire area and English Miscellany. Any definitive leads to me or Alan Reimer, please. Regards, Bob Barrett
