I obviously don't understand mudcat technology as the thread above appears under the heading "Sidmouth Closed" when I thought I typed "The Olympics & Sidmouth Festival".

Sorry to anyone connected with the 2005 Sidmouth Folk Week.

Just to be clear, the Folk Arts England I quoted refers to the Sidmouth International Festival closing (which it has) but I believe there are still plans to stage a much smaller Folk Week in the town this summer.

One wonders whether the local MP Hugo Swire will attend?
