I wish him all the strength in the world to still be active for this.

Blimey, there are some depressing stories on that newspaper website!

That's a kind offer Paul - I might take you up on that - thanks! There will be lumps in a few throats at that gig ...

I'm not 100% sure about family holiday arrangements yet. I know that I will be seeing my sisters, nieces and nephew in August but the dates aren't finalised yet. The other potential problem is standing for significant periods of time. I'm okay if I keep walking but if I stand in one spot for too long then my gammy leg starts playing up.

Is it possible to buy tickets for individual gigs, or do you have to buy one for the whole festival?

You can only buy for whole days but there are seats so don't worry about having to stand for the whole thing. The seats are unreserved so there's a fair bit of coming and going in them as the shows go on all day.
