NxNW

That's North by Northwest to you. It's a monthly folk club in the grounds of the Gladesville Hospital (reminded me of the lyrics to Bedlam from Elvis Costello's new album). Christina and I went to hear The Wheeze and Suck Band play in celebration of the club's 7th birthday.
The wheezers are good fun. They all wear top hats now - which reminded us of Harry from the Hoy At Anchor club in Leigh-on-Sea. Harry wears a top hat all the time, decorated with whatever fresh flowers come to hand. He makes the BEST sloe gin and toasted cheese sarnies... (sigh)
C & me would have done a floor spot at NxNW tonight, but we didn't have a ukelele with us - how often does that happen??
