Just idly wondering what happened to Anna Ryder, David Hughes, Bob Fox etc. They seemed very much part of the "Fairport family" in the 00s, but appear to have dropped off the radar since. Are they still involved with FC even if they aren't playing support slots or Cropredy any more? Or are they still doing Cropredy and I just haven't noticed? (I haven't been for about 12 years).

Bob isn't, but Anna does pop up on stage if she's about. David can answer for himself!

I've no doubt David will indeed be able to answer for himself when he's out of hospital, he's in for a minor op.
Bob Fox is touring with the Pitmen Poets - him, Billy Mitchell, Benny Graham, and Jez Lowe.

Bob Fox has been very involved with War Horse and after a year off he is doing it all again....Just seen him in Derby with the Pitmen Poets, fantastic show.

Obviously David has been on tour with St. Agnes Fountain for the last 12(?) years.

Likely to be about on Sunday at Brum Town Hall.....complete with accordion.
