Couldn’t make the June gathering of the George Formby Society? No worries!

I wasn’t able to make it to the June George Formby Society convention in Blackpool. I suspect you weren’t able to be there either. (Well, most of you, anyway.) Luckily, David Brindley was there to film the two-day event, and he’s since cut together a couple of hours of highlights.

Check out the strumming and merriment below!

I was in Blackpool for the March GFS convention, where I had an amazing time. I have a vague notion to return for the November convention, which, temptingly, will be held one week after the World Fantasy Convention in Brighton. But since I don’t have the vacation time to spare and therefore would have to find somewhere to work the day job remotely during the week between, it is most likely only that … a fantasy.

You never know though. I’ll let you know how it all plays (or should that be strums?) out!
