It Had To Happen

by Russell Turner - 16:08 on 05 February 2016

Two days after trumpeting City Limits' growing gig list, the inevitable happens – eight dates scratched from the diary because of confusion at The Gin Hut between the outgoing and incoming managers (or something like that – vagueness is the word).

The new man may be able to find some alternative dates for us, but we're not holding our breath. A stack of dates from a newly established venue is often not to be trusted. Such is life.

Of more immediate importance is tonight's Press Ball, at which Chatterbox will learn if it's the Highlands and Islands Community Newspaper of the Year. Even more importantly, Matchgirl has yet to decide which of the two new pairs of shoes she'll wear to the bash – the plain black ones or the sparkly black ones.

I know which my money's on.
