Just looked at the new festival website, and, tho' I haven't had time to examine every detail, it seems to lay everything out in a way that makes it easy to find out what you need to know.

Also, the idea of collections at sessions towards the fund for future festivals seems good to me. At least it will remove the reason for sessions specialists being thought of (wrongly), by some, as non contributors.

IMHO the organisers have done a marvellous job in producing all this in half the time it usually takes, and at some considerable financial risk to themselves.

A hearty thankyou to them all, they have made Sidmouth live on, against all odds.
