I saw Linda perform at the National in 2000, and I'm sure she sang then, although now that I look her name wasn't on the cast list - but I was sitting right beside her in a promenade performance -I KNOW she sang...
and I am ordering the new CD as soon as I'm off here...

It's unusual for it to be used but botulinum toxin - aka botox - can be used in cases of spasticity of muscles.

( http://www.cochrane.org/reviews/en/ab004327.html
for a brief summary of some research if interested)

Maybe some of you saw/heard about the young child with cerebral palsy who has botulinum injections in his legs to enable him to walk??

hope it works for her

I'm interested to read that one of the songs on Linda's new album will be called "Blue and Gold" - I assume it is a civil war song in which the narrator merely gets a nasty bruise rather than slicing his hand open ...

I should think it's probably about Worcester Warriors RFC.

No, it's a reference to the old Leeds United colours before Don Revie wanted them to look like Real Madrid.

Linda's always had a bee in her bonnet about Don Revie.

Or was it Richard Thompson?

If the last album is anything to go by then yes, however wasn't there some talk of her struggling with her voice when she toured Fashionably Late? I didn't see any of that tour so don't really know.

I know she dropped out of Cambridge (Grrrrr) and they had to parachute Fairport in at the last minute.

"Whisky, Bob Copper and me"

3 life enhancements in one song - "me" meaning Linda of course. Can't wait to hear the CD.

Apart from on the telly, haven't seen her since taking this shot, in a certain field in Oxfordshire - or was it Broughton Castle? Anyway the Rainmeister did his stuff!

It's a Cibachrome print off a Kodachrome 64 slide. That's my excuse for the lack of focus, very difficult to handhold K64 and a telephoto. Also I seem to have done something weird with Photoshop - sorry about large size.
