(hello leveller, not seen your name for a wee while -hope all is well for you). here in cockermouth -now that we have dried out- we seem to punch well above our weight and have a small arts centre that attracts top acts in the folk scene, michael mcgoldrick,kris drever, eliza carthy etc and several visits from jon boden in various guises. however, there is very little in the way of local participation, sessions etc. i would like to think that all our young folk are off occupying somewhere but it isn't happening, and cumbria as a whole appears very quiet - peace, love and revolution, pete
