This is Tim, our Tour Manager. Tim did all the driving on the tour, did all the accommodation booking, all the set up and plugging in all the boxes and leads and other technical stuff that I don't understand, manned the sound desk for the cabaret and the band, taking everything apart after, loading the van (often while we were all getting pissed with Jazzbadger's groupies), driving us miles in the dark on rollercoaster country roads to our accommodation (and didn't crash!), made sure we caught all the early morning ferries and flights, somehow survived on 3-6 hours sleep a night and last but not least, put up with a noisy smelly minibus full of us numpties. And amazingly, he was always cheerful and happy, great company and good chat, and even took us on wee mini-guided tours to see the sights in places like Mull, Orkney and Shetland.
What a saint!
Thank you Tim!
(And of course thanks also to Dave who provided this role for the Forres leg of the tour, which I've almost completely forgotten now! Thanks Dave!)
