Yes of course!

the singarounds (official ones) were well full and well a bit stately ~ lucky some times to get one song in a 2 hr session i.e The Dolphin!

Endeavour sessions after the Shanties tended to be well organised but a bit noisy sometimes

Conservative clubs apart from Friday (usual) in the evenings I mceed were well full and lots of singers doing one song floor spots!

In fact I sang very little apart from starting off the evening, some brill guests and droppers in such as Lynne Heraud and Pat Turner and Ciaran Boyle

Mick Ryan was brill as was Martin Wyndham Read and Iris Bishop, thanks to all who supported!and all the guests ~ and others who did not manage to get a spot!!

I am a learner on the anglo and feel more tune workshops needed had two good ones in the Fisherman's Rowing club in the mornings, yes cater for the good players but some of us are getting on a bit and need confidence! as well as the youngsters

One grouse probably due to historic reasons but the festival has a huge Scottish following, so apsrt from The Young 'Uns I wonder where the new English performers were? probably too expensive?
