OnSaturday 26th March we went to hearSid Calderbank give a presentation on "The Blackburn Poets"it encompassed historical facts ,songs anecdotes and poems,a really interesting and entertaining evening.Sid has a passion and enthusiasmfor all things relating to the Lancashire dialect and indeed local dialects from all counties which is infectious.It would be good to see his presentations at folk festivalswhere he would reach a wider audience alan cox and ann clancy
