Shantyfreak-

Thanks so much for providing such a fine overview!

Now we need to hear some reports from what went on more informally out in the hallways, the stairwells, the roof top, and under the dining room tables!

I assume the "items" you've mentioned above were songs adapted from Cicely Fox Smith poems and songs by the admirable Bob Watson ("Mollymauk" etc.).

For those who do not know, Shantyfreak collaborates with me on posting C. Fox Smith poems in their original form on the Oldpoetry website; there are now over 425 of her poems there now with another 100 or so to transcribe and post.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
