RE: [ql-users] Irish Show
So, when is a good time for a Show? Mid-Summer? Or do we leave it until Sept/Oct? Mid summer - August - suits me. And me Anyone else? The weather will be good too. BTW Darren I have just come back from an evening with Steve Bensusan (you others will not know him) and he is onboard for the new band. Brilliant news!! (Steve is a gifted Guitarist. I have Roy's Album with Last Post and he is amazing on it - unbelievable solos.) I had thought you'd lost touch with himI was just listening to him in the car last night on my way home from work (that album occupies slot 4 on my CD Multi-changer!!)

RE: [ql-users] Irish Show
The recent(?) profile of Linus Torvalds in _Wired_ claimed that Linus' first love was not a woman but a Sinclair QL. So there you are, material for a love song.

[ql-users] Irish Show

No customers ever come so probably best to do it when it suits us! 8-)# You can fly into Galway airport quite cheaply from Luton on occasion... Via Aer Arann. Any ideas fellas?

You had an age gap spanning 20+ years, Roy with his long rock star hair and flowery shirt, Tony in shorts and beard, Jim was tanned and in jeans - the poor barman was working overtime trying to figure out who the couples were! I also tried to teach the barman how to pull Guinness properly... but that's another story. I remember it well. This was the -second- gay bar we stumbled into. The first was obvious - there were men dancing! The look on the very gay barman's face when Darren showed how to slowly pour a Guinness was priceless. Reminds me, I really must organise another Irish Show, maybe in Galway for a change. Hear hear.
