Many years ago when Harry was touring over here in the UK, he appeared "live" on a Sunday morning radio program, he had his 2 children, Josh and Jenny with him. The host asked Harry how did he manage to get the children out of school to accompany him, and Harry said that the children had to keep diaries of the trip. He then went on to say, "you should read those diaries, they are great" whereupon a little voice piped up, "how do you know daddy, you haven't read them." Cue raucous laughter from the studio. When the host asked if Harry would like to hear a piece of music, he immediately asked for TWOTEF and spoke a some length about Gordon Lightfoot. Mutual admiration.
