Interesting post from the guest about Whitby not wanting folk week. I would have thought that any town would be grateful for a week long world class festival to be in their town. Having just returned from Warwick it is good to see how the whole town embraces the festival. I worked in a seaside town for a short while and the residents spent all winter moaning about their loss of income as there was nobody from the West Riding visiting and all summer moaning about them being there.
