I, too, am pleased to hear that you are yours are just about OK (if a little smoked!), John. On the news here in the UK they have reported that the fires are the work of young teenage arsonists! And that more kids had been out stoking the flames since the original outbreak. What on earth is that all about?
Take care PaulC PS I imagine you've heard about the forthcoming 35th Anniversary 4-CD Box Set 'Fairport Unconventional'. If not, details should be up at www.free-reed.co.uk soon. Also, I recently heard about a video of Sandy Denny live footage called "It All Comes Round Again" (VHS PAL only) from http://www.musikfolk.com ) - not seen it myself, but sounds interesting.
