@justinmoorhouse @steveroylecomic@OldhamColiseum Saw you both at Bury and Rawtenstall recently.. Good to see you again as I never remember jokes 😂
Thanks for being part of a wonderful but very sad night. X
@Iankershaw@OldhamColiseum Shameful.. But bloody hell what a wonderful show they put on for us tonight. I laughed and cried throughout the night. And the applause and tears as the final curtain came down was something I will never forget 💕💕💕💕💕
