Holed up in the back of a van you have an inter-generational mix of people from 13-65, cups of tea are being swilled back with great gasps of”ahhh”, and the ham sandwiches are doing the rounds. The song of the moment, “Going Out The Way You Came In” an oldie from the Irish Country Star Big Tom, is being played on Midwest Radio due to locals requests. ... read full story / add a comment
