You are nearly right, my wife and I have just returned from a three week holiday on the isle of wight, where we met up with Tony and his wife Sue; we spent a very pleasent afternoon with them at a touristy place in the middle of the island. (Bob, your name came into the conversation as I believe that Tony and yourself both attended Accrington grammer School)

Yes he is an evangelic pastor but he has not quit music, whilst we were in their company they very kindly presented us with two CDs of their gospel music, where Tony provides the guitar music and vocals and Sue provides the saxaphone and also joins in the vocals.
