Learning quietly was also what Peter was trying to do, surprisingle maybe it is one of the things that being a chorister teaches you. He'd been to Folk Festivals since he was 4, the afternoon Kid's Folk Club at Cleethorpes was brill, had dropped out in his early teens and then decided to go back, asked to go to a session and whoops.......

More importantly if the music and clubs is going to thrive WE need young people. Like Dave I was lucky, I now worry about the future. At a recent, well run, session there was one player under 20, a couple of others under 30 and at 50 I was still one of the younger ones there, scary.

All the best
