If only Universal had released the album all this publicity would have done wonders. I hope that they are not burned out by January. Just back from two days in Liverpool and now it is back to Manchester.

Thanks Graham,

It clashes with the England game, what to do?

Might have to watch the girls performance and then switch to the England game as I am not interested in the Rugby itself.
