Hi Christy following your reply to Rebeccah not all your earlier correspondents have jumped ship. Some of us are just laying low. I remember in the early (dial up) days the only information I could find on you was on an American site. Then Ruben came along and established the 4711.org. I recall one frequent contributer, Jack Power I wonder what happened to him ???Unfortunately thd 4711ers site died a death & like the parrot in the Monty Python sketch couldn’t be revived. Like most followers I can’t believe how lucky we are to have thd Guestbook and the chance to contact you directly. On another subject I’m off to a confrence for Jeremy Corbyns new party next month. There’s still light at the end of the tunnel, No Pasaran
Got tickets for Knocknarea on Thursday – start time 8pm. But what time should we aim to be there – don’t know Knocknarea Arena at all. Seats not allocated – so do we need to allow plenty of time to get seated? Does it take a while to get parked. Only ever been to see Christy in London theatres. Any advice gratefully received.
Christy's reply
not overly familiar myself…
played there once before
its a good room
on the Donegal side,on the edge of Sligo town
if memory serves, there is parking,
I can only suggest you get there at 7
sometimes people queue to get front seats
I must stress….I’m only the singer in this outfit…I works the songs…my good companeros work the logistics
I love Sligo gigs…always music on the air
many of our earlier correspondents have jumped ship to other platforms….I appreciate those who still converse here….I have neither time nor inclination to visit other social media outlets….I like it here
There’s lots of flags going up here, in different pockets of the country. We drove through one or two of the villages surrounding Bradford on Saturday, on our way to Settle. One or two area had flags on every lamppost. Union Jacks and St George’s flag. Mainly flying half way up the poles. Ladder height. Until recently St George’s flag was only seen on churches and on the windows of the far right.
This flag has such strong connotations. I
feel shocked to see it.
Christy's reply
In parts of Ulster there are Israeli flags fluttering side by side with Union Jacks…I put the boot down and accelerate towards more hospitable territory…some of the flags are being laid threadbare by the winds that blow..we live in hope
