Subject: RE: Miskin @ Easter 2004
Thank you Guru thats was so nice of you, Kevin my other half said what a wonderful voice you had, and I have already said so much, so the feeling is mutual! ;0)
Mary! Glad you & Liz are fine, what a bugger of a thing to happen! Well done for not being over the limit! I made the bed in the back of the camper and lay down all the way home, Knackered and a little hung over (What Me?), I was unable to cope with anything until about 5pm!
For me the magic moment was seeing Harriet Earis & Colman Connolly, I missed them last year WOW! harpist and flute / pipes! it wasnt just their music that captivated you, it was Harriet and the way the harp and her became one when she played, magical, just magical.
Also Andy winning the Absent friends trophy was a highlight, and a tear jerker! well deserved indeed.
Another highlight for me was working as a steward with other folkies I may not have got to know or talk to, had I not stewarded! Really great, it added to my festival.
Snuffy we joined the bong session at about 3am ish and thoroughly enjoyed it! I agree that the fellowship and community singing spirit is what festivals are all about, may Miskin go on forever! (sorry Andy, can you cope with being immortal too?)
Thank you all for you contributions be they songs, music or good company, I really enjoyed them all, look forward to good times together again soon,

Cheers, Lucy
