  Speaker 1: was double denim. And what a great theme you know.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, I must admit I had a pair of jeans,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: but I did have to chop around for a jacket,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: but I found one and thinking that me and missus
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Ferrett be the only ones in double denim. But the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: place it was really new. It was like a step
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: back in time. It was they had had a great,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: big marquee. He had two live bands, one of which
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: his son John was playing a drums on. They were
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: called Pool Club. They were so good, and then a
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: little later on in the evening another group called User Friendly.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: There must have been about two hundred people there and
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: there was a Burger van as well. So it was
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: a fantastic afternoon. What a way to celebrate your sixtieth birthday.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: So once again, Dale, thanks for the invite and a
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: big happy birthday. Okay, well we bet get on with
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: some sport, really shouldn't we? It is a sports show
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: after all.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Cricket now in the Kent Cricket League Championship Division. Folkston
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: traveled away to play Leeds and Broomfield up near Leeds Castle.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: They won the tys and put Leeds into bat but
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: didn't count on Max Aitken making a double century. In fact,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: he made two hundred and two runs to be precise,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: before he was bowled by Stuart Graham and caught by
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: young Theo Coombs, who was in his first season in
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the first team. So world un theo Leeds were eventually
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: bowled out for three hundred and eighty four for eight.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Folkston did py up a brave fight with Rueman Ahmed,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: he was caught in bowl for ninety seven. Their final
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: score was two hundred and eight, so they lost the
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: game by one hundred and seventy six runs. This Saturday,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Dartford are the visitors to the Three Hills for a
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: twelve o'clock start. Pawlkinshall put into bat by betts Haanger
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Colliery in a game that was shortened to thirty overs,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: probably due to the weird former gets to the show
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: this chap Terry. Terry used to come on and talk
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: about darts, but he turns his hand to cricket as well.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: He opened the scoring and made one hundred and sixty
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: two not out and wicket keeper Mike James added ninety
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: five before he was caught in bold. Final total was
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy eight for one. Betsanger made one
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty five for eight, so Hawkins won the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: match by one hundred and thirty three runs.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Now, I couldn't find.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: A fixture this Saturday for Hawkins. However, the following Saturday
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: they are away to Deal Victoria and Barnes close down
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: at the Grove.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Excuse me.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Hive Cricket Club won the toss and put Wilsbury into
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: bat who made one hundred and forty eight for nine.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Ive then took to the crease and made one hundred
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: and fifty two three. Top scorer was Tim Pichowski he
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: made sixty five, so they won the game by seven wickets.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: This Saturday, Hive are away at Ash, which means a trip.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Ash is just not too far away from Sandwich. In
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the local derby between Hive Green and Saltwood, the Green
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: won the toss and put Saltward into bat and made
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty four all out. Now, to be fair,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: it's an achievable target. However, the Sialtwood bowlers were on
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: form or the Green were all bowled out for one
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: hundred and eleven runs, so Saltwood won the match by
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: just thirteen runs. So that was a bit of a
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: tight old local diary that fixtures this Saturday see Hive
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Green away at Egerton, which is around nine miles outside
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: of Ashford, and Siltwood are at home to Nelson Cricket
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Club who will travel around the coast from the Thanet
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and finally Sipton Park were at home to Offham Cricket Club,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: who they come down from a West Moreland. The Sibs
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: won the toss and elected to bat, making one hundred
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and ninety eight for nine. Josh Woodward was top scorer
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: with ninety four often then made two hundred for seven,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: so winning the game by three wickets. This week the
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Sibs make the short journey to play Merzam which is
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: just this side of Ashford, so the rain stayed away
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: for most of the time. Last Saturday I owned all
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: our local cricket games to go ahead, so let's hope
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the same thing happens this week.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: As I said last week, I decided to look into
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the Kent Cricket League and tell you a bit more
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: about it. Well, what I discovered is that it is massive.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: There are thirty divisions for your normal fifty over cricket
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and eight groups for the twenty twenty Cup. So starting
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: from the top, it reads Premier Division Championship Divisions one
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: to four. Now Division five to seven they've got two
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: subdivisions named after famous aeroplanes, the Spitfire and the Hurricane.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Then divisions eight to fourteen have two or three subdivisions
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: which are named after three famous Kent cricketers, John Sheppard,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Alanott and Derek Underwood, hence the Shepherd, Not and Underwood divisions. Locally,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Folkston first team play in the Championship, Sipton Park play
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: in Division five Hurricane, Folkston Second eleven play in Division
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: six Hurricane and Hive both play in Division eight Shepherd,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: so that's a couple of local derbies there, and Saltwood
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: and Hive Green both play in Division nine Shepherd, so
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: that's even better, another couple of local derbies there.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: So there you have it. Hope it all makes sense.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: It's is when you look at it the bigger picture
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: of it, it really is massive, you know, but when
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: you kind of narrow it down, some of it is regional.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: So it's not too bad. I mean, if you're in
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the Premiership or the Championship, you could play anywhere in Kent. Okay,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: time for a bit of music now, and this time
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: we've got from nineteen ninety six where you have got
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Jamiroquai and Cosmic Girl Jamroqui nineteen ninety six. Whatever happened
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to them. They burst on the scene in the nineties,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: didn't They probably made three, possibly four off decent records
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: and then I haven't heard of them since. This Sunday
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: see is the Hive Bay Haith Bay Triathlon a return.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: The headquarters for the event is the High Swimming Pool
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: with the transition area on the promenade side not the
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: south road side, and around on the seaside now it's
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: organized by Max Ramsley and his team from the Ashford
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Tri Club and it's very popular with local athletes who
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: want to have a go in this swim, bike run event.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you get runners that you know just add enough
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: of running and want to do something different, also swimmers.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: So this is a great opportunity to put all three
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: events together and it was really popular with the first timers,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: you know. And it's an added bonus for first timers
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: because you can join the Ashford Tri Club free for
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: a year where you can get specialists coaching that will
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: help you. This event can of the following in the pool.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: In the High swimming pool there's a two hundred and
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: fifty meter zigzag swim. So basically you start in the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: bottom left hand corner, then you use zigzag across to
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the bottom right hand corner. Then there's a sixteen k
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: that's that's nearly ten miles that's on the bike. Now
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: this one goes if you can picture this, it goes
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: up Twist Road. Now you've got to turn left at
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: the top of Twist Road. Then you go round the
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: roundabout and head off to in the Folks and direction
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: up Sandgate Hill, up to Castle Hill Avenue where you
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: take a left and then you go along to the
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: roundabout at the Folks And Central station and then you
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: return back along well, it's pretty much the same route
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: through Sandgate, but you turn off at the petrol station
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: onto Prince's Parade, right back down into transition at the
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: swimming pool and then next it's the five k run.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Now that's back along Prince's Parade. There's a turnaround point
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: just past the garage and back home to the swimming pool.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: So spectators you can check it out, start and finish
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: anywhere on the route and it'd be good to see
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you out there supporting these triathletes, some of them. It
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: might be the very first time. So if you want
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: further information on this, please go to the Ashford tri
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Club dot co dot uk and they've also got a
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Facebook page. Now, I was trawling through the Ashford site
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: there and was looking at the results, and this is
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: the eighth year of running of the triathlon. Basically it
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: started twenty sixteen, but it did miss two years. It
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: missed the COVID year of twenty twenty and I do
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: believe my memory serves me right twenty twenty three. Right
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: at the last minute. I think they had a bit
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: of trouble with a swimming pool so it didn't go
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: ahead on those two years.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: We're looking at the results.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Last year a gentleman called Joshua Pine he did the
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: three events in forty eight minutes fifty two seconds, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: the year before, former guest to the show Tom Bean,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: he won that in fifty minutes thirty seconds. There's a
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: gentleman called He's got Wiseman. He won it twice. He
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: won it in the very first year twenty sixteen, and
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: he won it in twenty eighteen, and from Maya the
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: way I've been studying it, he does hold the course
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: record that's at forty five minutes thirty seven seconds on
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the lady section. Last year Jill Cliff from deal Trier
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: she was the first lady home in fifty five minutes
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: fourteen seconds.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Now Jill Cliff.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I've worked with Jill Cliff for many years over at
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: deal Try. She's the race director for the Deal Half Marathon,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: and yeah, she really loves her sport and she's an
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: excellent triathlete. She also won the race in twenty twenty one,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: where in fact she holds the course record fifty three
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: minutes twenty three seconds.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: A lady called Ellie Riley.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: She won it two years running twenty eighteen twenty nineteen
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and I love this one. In the first year it
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: was held in twenty sixteen, Kylie Hasseu won the ladies section.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: And Kylie came into the studio after a few days
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: after and she was telling me that, yeah, she finished
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: her run, and you know she wasn't. She didn't think
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: she'd won the race at all. So she got all
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: her stuff together and got on a bike and cycled
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: back to Folks and cycled home. She then got a
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: text message to say, Kylie, where are you? You came first.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: We got a trophy here for you. So she jumped
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: on the bike and went all the way back to
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: get her prize. Now, now you may remember last year
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I interviewed four ladies from a team called the Scrambled Legs. Well,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I asked one member, Julie Griffin, if she was taking
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: part in the triathlon and she said no, not this year,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: as the Scrambled Legs team have decided to ascend a
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Mount Snowden in Wales as a little challenge to themselves.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: So let me read you out this report sent in
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: by Julie So in April, four of the Scrambled Legs
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: that's Julie Griffin, Katrina Peak, Vicki Backster and Vicki Jones
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: decided it would be a good idea to try a
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: new challenge and climb Mount Snowden. One of the group
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: told that the Watkin Path would be a scenic route
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: and one of the best. We weren't told we would
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: be one of the hardest paths to take on and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: it was a very tough challenge. The cloud base dropped
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: quite early on and visibility was poor three hours in
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: and it was considered it might be sensible to turn
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: around and go back, but the scrambled legs. They haven't
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: got any sense at all, and they carried on. Now,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: they bumped into various groups who kept telling us it's
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: only another twenty minutes, but it wasn't. They came to
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: the toughest part and scrambled up the rocks. Well they
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: were the scrambled legs after all, and they scrambled up
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: the rocks with a group of teenagers descending at the
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: same time, sending screed and rocks right down on them.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Anyway, they finally made it to the top.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: The temperature had dropped and they couldn't see much further
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: than five meters. Now, after a brief rest, we had
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: our picture done at the summit and began the descent
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: back down. They were out there for ten hours there
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: and back, but they finally made it all in one piece,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: all shattered, but all elated with themselves the fact that
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: they had climbed Mount Snowden. Now the next day or
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: it was another sorry it was the longest zip wire
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: for they had another adrenaline boost. Now let me tell
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: you what the zip wire is. Now, I've looked this
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: up on YouTube, this particular zip wire, and there are
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: four wires, four abreast and they go down round about
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: one point five kilometer anything up to one hundred mile
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: an hour. Now there was four parallel lines and they
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: set them all off at the same time and this
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: is how they came in verse back was Vicky Baxter,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: then Katrina, then Julie and then Vicky Jones. And they
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: go over a thing, a place called Penryn Quarry Lake
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: and it looks absolutely spectacular. I mean, I bet they
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: were buzzing when they got off, for there really does
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: look fantastic. Thinking about this, well, first of all, they
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: said that they might want to do Scaffold Pike next year.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: All right, it's a little challenge, so they've got to
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: work on that, arrange all that. And I've been thinking,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: you know, about the National Three Peaks. I've never had
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: anybody in here that's ever done the Three Peaks. So
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: if you're out there listening to this little report and
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: you've done and your team have done the three Peaks,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: and then please let us know and we'd love, I'd
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: really love you to come in and tell me all
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: about it. For those of you that don't know, the
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: National Three Peaks is an event where participants attempt to
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: climb three peaks in twenty four hours, where the walkers
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: climb each peak in turn and are driven two and
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: now are driven from the front of one mountain some
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: of the foots of one mountain sorry to the next.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Now they go in this order.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Actually, Scaffold Pike is the smallest at three thousand, two
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: hundred and nine feet, snow Don is next three five
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: hundred and sixty feet, and ben Nevis is the highest
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: in Scotland four four hundred and thirteen feet.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: So there go.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a challenge in itself, isn't it. And
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: it looks like the Scrambled Legs might take three years
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: if they do scap Pike this year in ben Nevis
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: the following year. But anyway, so look out for the
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: cyclists and the runners on Sunday doing the High Bow Triathlon,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: and good luck to everybody. To Max Ramsley and his team,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: we hope you have a great day.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: This song is I just had to find a song
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: with the mountain in it. This is for the Scrambled Legs.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: This is Ain't no mountain high enough from Diana Ross
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: as well, and a song called Shine. But you guess
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: that didn't you. I've known that for rages, so it's
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: really nice to hear that one.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Now, last Sunday I was a race EMC at the
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Folkston Coastal ten k organized by a race director, Ray
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Johnson and the Folkston Rotary Club. Now the runners that's
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: about against severe wins. I'll tell you what. It was
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: so windy down there. But you did feel for the
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: runners because the wind was in their faces on the
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: way out because it ran from folks and to hide
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: them back. But coming back I don't think their feet
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: touched the ground. They were flying. So there was not
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: many pebs scored that day, but the rain stayed off.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: There was just a few spits and sports through at
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: the very end. Now, total of nine hundred and forty
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: nine runners across the finishing line, a record number for
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: the race being in its fourteenth year. We're guitar zem
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: from Ashford a C was the first male home in
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: a time of thirty three minutes nineteen seconds, whilst the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: ladies winner was Becky Morrish from Paddickwood AC in a
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: time of thirty nine minutes and four seconds. Folks and
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Running and Athletic Club entered a magnificent sixty two runners
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: and here are just a few of the many, many
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: notable performances for the club. Manda Guru was second lady
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: overall and the second lady home for Folkston was a
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: birthday girl, Kirsty Wilson. She came in she did a
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: pebe time as well, wait to spend your birthday.

• 18:34
  Speaker 1: sath Kent Harriers was Ian Major and the first lady
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: home was the smiley face of Marie Watson. I'd love
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: to see Marie come across the lines. She always looked
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: so happy. And the Harriers had the twenty five runners
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: out there and an interesting note was that on two
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Saga Cruise ships over a record two hundred runners took
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: part in the virtue option with Crewe and guests raising money.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Now I didn't see any pictures this year, but I've
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: just seen pictures in the past of like the crew
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: just running around the deck. Got to do ten k
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: round a cruise ship, so that's a few laps, that's
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: for sure. Now, there's many, many stories to come out
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: of the Sunday's race, and you know, there were so
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: many people that I knew there, so many first time
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: as it was just so good, so many people raising
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: money for their charity. I'm sorry there's just too many
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: stories to tell here on radio folks, and due to
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: the limited time, but a massive congratulations must go to
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Ray Johnson, the Folks and Rosary Club, the Police Cadet's.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: They were everywhere and it's part of their curriculum, if
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: you like. They have to do work in the community
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: to kind of tick the boxes so that they can
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: finish their course. And they're well done to all the volunteers,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: all the marshals, the lead bikes, the tail bikers, the
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: first aiders, the finish line marshals and many more. So
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: well done to you. Or okay, now this next song. Now,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: when I was in Cyprus, I was talking to a
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: friend of mine, Addy Bashford, and he works at the
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Della War Pavilion in bex Hill, and he's got some
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: great stories about the artists that appear there. And it's always,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: you know, when a song comes on and he tells
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: us a little story about the group, how he met them,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: and you know what they're what they're like. And he
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: told us about the next artist who I mean, it
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: surprised me as well when he turned up that Andy
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: didn't realize that this gentleman had polio and walked with
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: a stick. And sadly he passed away within the last
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: six months or so. But this is for you, Andy,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: and this is Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: You've done it.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Up, Sophia Star and music gets the best of me. Okay,

• 22:23
  Speaker 1: I've been messaging Sally Watkins, who's from the Folks and
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: Rowing Club down there, and sadly, due to the high
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: winds last on Sunday, the Folks and Regatta had to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: be canceled. However, subject to umpires being available, a possible
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: date of Sunday the sixth to July has been penciled
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: in the diary.

• 22:44
  Speaker 1: fourteenth and the fifteenth of June, where there is an

• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Sunday a short trip is made to bex Hill, which
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: isn't too far away and for another regatta. And as
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: these two venues are very close together, many rowers make
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: a week end of it, either camp in or staying
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: at a hotel every night. So let's hope for them
• 23:04
