James Burton is due over here in July and I have been asked to do an hour spot with him\u2026so I am doing a Ricky Nelson set as he played all those great solos on those records\u2026.it\u2019s a real pleasure to play with a legend\u2026(but I think he\u2019ll get over it)\u2026.therefore the song I have sent you this week is one I wrote last year called \u201cTribute to Ricky Nelson\u201d\u2026..I\u2019ve always been a huge fan of Ricky and of course James.\n \nThe election is now reaching an even bigger boring climax\u2026.it\u2019s a bit like watching puppets\u2026.and even Wirral has had a mention\u2026something to do with giving us a few free goes through the Mersey Tunnel or something\u2026I don\u2019t now where the money they make on the two tunnels goes\u2026.there is a constant flow of traffic through all the barriers with cars paying \xa31.70 a throw..and wagons much more\u2026it\u2019s a joke\u2026we drive though several tunnels in Wales to get to Anglesey FREE OF CHARGE.\n\nThere has been a terrible sad incident in Hoylake whereby a young 16 year old girl threw herself in front of a train at a level crossing\u2026.apparently her mother had just died and she had other problems\u2026I always think suicide is so sad and tragic\u2026.it\u2019s a real sad situation\u2026.I\u2019ve known a few friends who have taken their own lives\u2026and I always think if they could have ridden the storm for a while longer they might have come through\u2026but it\u2019s easy to say.\n\nThe royal baby is due\u2026.so this will provide a filler for the news\u2026we already have TV reporters standing outside the hospital waiting for something to happen\u2026and guessing as to the name etc\u2026it will have blue blood y\u2019know\u2026..I must say I do like Kate and William\u2026.again the crowds will gather\u2026direct from the Richard the Third procession\u2026..I often wonder what these people would do if it wasn\u2019t for our regal rulers.\n\n \n\n5.The Gas Board will be replacing all pipes in the country over the next 8 years\u2026they have been in my road for two and a half weeks\u2026.looks like world war three\u2026.what a mess\u2026.however one of the guys showed me a piece of old piping which looked like a flute\u2026.they have JUST filled in the three big holes in my driveway\u2026.so I got my kayak out and went to Chester and rowed up the River Dee in idyllic conditions\u2026which put me in a better mood. I absolutely love Chester.
