My highlights: Jon Heslop & Kathy Wallis in the Cottage Saturday teatime - passionate. Mary Humphries & Anahata - new to me and so entertaining. The magnificent work done by Jan the Van and her crew for the parade - the dragon and hobby horses. Plus the the triple pipes of Vicky, Johnny and Colman leading the parade. The quiet sessions upstairs where you could sing or play what you wanted rather than do crowd-pleasers. Luasca (Harriet Earlis & Colman Connolly) with Vicky Swan & Johnny Dyer sitting in. When quality musicians like these get together, they don't just jam, they produce something magical and exciting. Jon Heslop again, Sunday late in Nelly Dean's - sorry, don't know what the song was, just loved the joyous harmony singing. Splott Man
