For Ron M and Jim O..

Rafael said you would kill him when you found out...

He played at the City Halls, Old Fruit Market in Glasgow last Saturday.

Hi Jon,
When I saw him in Oxford, he'd never been to Scotland before, but was planning to come sometime.
He's a pretty disorganized guy actually LOL!
A true Flamenco trying to live an organized life, but not quite making it!

Things seem to happen on the spur of the moment for him!
Anyway, for me Glasgow is still almost a 300 mile round trip, but it would have been on Jim's doorstep.
How did you find out?
Were you talking with him?

cheers

Ron

Hi Jon,

Jeez! To think he sends me emails and sometimes phones but he never mentioned it. Right on my doorstep.
Having said that, if that was last Saturday, I couldn't have managed anyway, it was my office trip and we were in Rome.
I think this Rafa guy's fearful I'd have lead him astray

I had a look around the Radio Scotland website, but alas it's not been saved.
