What an act to follow !

I know now what the old time vaudeville artistes must have felt when they had to follow the great acts that were around on the prewar and wartime stages. How could one follow Gracie Fields, Max Miller, Harry Lauder and later Tommy Cooper, Morecambe and Wise to name a few ? I hesitate to pen my own rather trite memories after reading the terrific recent contributions from such a varied selection and I cannot and will not select any one as they are all so beautifully written and so vividly redolent of the times they represent. I just thank you all for the emotions that your contributions have stirred and for the absolute pleasure and privilege it has been to read them. I can't believe that there is no more to come. Surprise and delight me. Thank you, Regle.
