www.stocktonfolk.org.ukMany thanks to all at Cramlington Folk Club for a very enjoyable evening. A great set of photos from last night - thank you, Christine.What can I say... not a dry eye in the house for George Welch and Stewart Hardy's performance... for the spontaneous humour and also the beautiful music which comes from such an accomplished pair of musicians. Couldn't be better... playing to a packed house and much appreciation from all who saw them do their thing.
