Hey guys, want a laugh?

Well, on Friday night I was out with a group of people I sing with, and was happily singing a few solo songs in a pub.

When someone approached me, and asked me would I sing at a PEACE RALLY next Friday night. *LOL*

I looked at them, and just said 'No'.

They persisted, and kept asking me to come along and sing, Nancy Griffiths 'From a Distance'. And I kept, trying to be polite and said No.

But they kept pestering, until I turned around and said: 'Look, for a start, I'm not opposed to a war on Iraq. And there's no way I'm going up to sing in support of your anti-US administration rally. Because, that's what it is. If you were really interested in peace, and human rights, you'd support the removal of Saddam. Got it?'.

I think they were taken aback. They quit pestering me about it though! ;-)
