Scunthorpe is a small town not far from Hull.  My good friends Christine and John Bird came to the gig.  The venue was a very inspirational place.  Firstly, it run by volunteers, all of the people that work there are volunteers.  You couln't meet nicer people.  I met Victoria, who I mistakenly took for someone that was born and bred in Scunthorpe and had never left.  As it turns out she had left and lived in London and Cornwall for a few years but decided to return to her community.  A dark, pretty girl who had chosen her life, I was in admiration.

The venue called Cafe Indiependent, no my spelling is not wrong in this case,  is very comfortable with leather couches and chairs.  The food was really good, loaded nachoes and a crisp chicken salad, the best on the tour so far.

Not many people, but for those who were there, got a great show.   Reeves gives his all every night and both he and Lisa hung out afterwards, signing albums and chatting to the audience.  The audience were excited and seemed to love what they were hearing.   It was a great night and we drove to Doncaster through mists and sometimes fog.  Oh England.
