What can I say...brilliant entertainment! Francis is a very funny man, being a small intimate venue made it special, an enjoyable evening with great humour and great sadness at one point I was near to tears when he talked about his dear friend Rick, he was visibly sad. Felt for him ... obviously last night he could talk about the last year of Ricks life...it's not always easy to talk about someone you miss,( I know sometimes I can chat about my deceased sister and other times it hurts too much). Francis was superb, went to have my book signed after the show and although notices said keep brief, no dedications etc etc he found time for a few words. Genuinely a NICE BLOKE only one complaint...show wasn't long enough...could have listened for hours! Get that Quo Story written and filmed

I was so impressed I have got a meet and greet for Scarborough Spa next year. Got a book signed also, I tried to get the book signed for my brother with a small message, but he said he could only sign his name , not sure why?? but a lovely bloke and am looking forward to my M&G.

As we strolled back to our hotel afterwards we walked round back of theatre and saw Francis being walked onto the tour bus by his pa...we all felt a tinge of sadness for him being on that bus alone after a lifetime with Rick being there too. I am definitely booking to see again next year. My son was the last person to arrive having driven up from a job in Eastbourne...didn't phase Francis did it...up for some banter ! I remember my meet and greet years ago..my son and four year old grandaughter were gutted they weren't with me..Francis spent 10 minutes talking to them on my mobile!!! I have the pics of him using my tigger cased phone...a true gent. Olivia saw her first gig aged 4 and was there with me aged 21... been doing couple of gigs every year...she is smitten like her Nan 😁
