No, but getting a bit warmer.

You couldn't really get colder than Stanners tho' could you?

Unless you went for Mrs. Mills.....

She's had a Northern 'hit', but is better known in a different genre......

Now...any ideas on the venue? Admittedly there's not much to work with, but here's a clue: it's somewhere quite dark ....

...The Black Hole of Calcutta?

Hmmm....nice try. But let's just say....it's somewhere with fewer home comforts.

Studio 20 in Leeds (as it's a Terry Cryer photograph)?

Leeds-no. Cryer-yes.

Any more for any more?

I'm missing my morning swim for this. The sacrifices we make!

Ken-can't you put 'The Right Direction' up instead?

How about the 100 Club then?

Congratulations to Funky Si & Bjorn78.

It is indeed Clara Ward. Snapped by Terry Cryer at the 100 Club.

Now, about your prize:

• do you mind sharing it? It's quite small.
  
• will you be at the place that's less salubrious than the B.H.of Calcutta tomorrow night? (I'm guessing that Bjorn won't be there, as it's a bit of a hike from Sweden, but you never know).
  
  

If so, we could have a little prize-giving ceremony. If not, I'm afraid I'll probably have eaten your prize by the weekend

Congratulations to Funky Si & Bjorn78.

I was gonna say that,thought i better not,everybody will think i`m 100club mental.

I won't be there either .... How about you eat it for me anyway & raise a glass to all who have a bit of darkness in their soul? In the words of Curtis, Right on for the darkness, right on, right on.

Very nice of you but unfortunately I can't be at the ceremony.

Just the excitement and pride I feel right now is more than enough!
