wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted May 6, 2020 A bit O/T but thought i'd chance the wrath of the Board Police. Tomorrow, the 7 th is the one year Anniversary of the unexpected passing of my Mother in Law, The Gal Liza, formerly of The Press Gang. If any board posters have any old bit of squit themselves that they could share with me, be it photos , recordings, whatever, i and my extended family would be very grateful. She was a wonderful Lady with an 'open kitchen' always welcoming to all callers. It seems that the PM facility is not working at the moment and as they were public performances i'd have no problem if any items were openly posted on here. To our disgrace, we never collected her performances, so if anyone has anything at all of interest, we would be very grateful indeed. many thanks in advance, Mr and Mrs WCorko.

Corko, the Friends of Norfolk Dialect (F.O.N.D) were selling a DVD of the Press Gangs final performance at Cromer Pier, together with excerpts of shows at village halls. A quick Google resulted in a couple of old EDP articles including one regarding the aforementioned final performance which had a photo of the Press Gang.............

wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) Update, contacted Keith Skipper he sent us a copy of "magic mardle "dvd which features both The Gal Liza and her husband John, my father in law. Who incidentally came up with the moniker FOND. Edited May 28, 2020 by wcorkcanary 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
