This is so sad. Rosie has been a regular at the Cumberland "ABI" session and at the Greenside session, and being a tune-head myself, I had been really enjoying all the unusual tunes that she brought along. Not long before Christmas, I was talking to her about the forthcoming operation, and how she was so looking forward to getting out walking again once her knee was better. I can't quite believe that this has happened. I've attached a recording I made last June in the Cumberland Arms that I believe to be of Rosie playing what is perhaps an appropriate tune for the occasion: it has a sad edge to it, and it's named after a crag in a lovely part of the Peak District. It's a gorgeous tune too. (in case the attachment doesn't work, it's also here). Carl_Wark.mp3
