Saturday 22nd May - Avon Bar, Hamilton

The last time I was here was last year at this time, so I was pleasantly surprised that they remembered me. There had been a big football match on that day, so my usual rendition of `Simply the Best` wouldn't have gone down very well. After several requests for Celtic and Rangers songs, I politely declined and got on with the job in hand.

There had been a charity walk that day by the workers at Philips Lighting, a local company. A few of those who took part in the 10 mile and 20 mile walks came in late on, obviously the worse for wear, what with the blazing sun that day and the amount of alcohol they had consumed! They were a happy bunch, and made my night.
