FJDGoose Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 Yo KK how're you? - No idea how many people will come along to this - we don't sell advance tickets for the Old Nun's Head gigs - however he was once local, and has said a few of his old friends may well come down, so my advice would be to come along early if you can, ( I don't want that to put you off, if you can only come along later though) ). have you brought the dog before? I can't remember - maybe check with the pub if it's ok - also check with Sue, it's ok with me if you want to bring the dog, but like I say, you might want to check first. :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/60001-nick-dow-the-goose-is-out-the-old-nuns-head-friday-12-june/#findComment-858052 Share on other sites More sharing options...
