We did never make any such announcement and never would as we could not guarantee that the Regatta would hold its side of any bargain.
It matters not in any case as, although there were occasional contacts with the Regatta nothing concrete or anywhere near was ever agreed.
If I could be bothered I could show you the letter (it was the same one each time).
I was refering to the longer festivals, not that it matters as I am sure that the longer festivals did not effect the weekend events. We always had a fair number of people arriving Sunday evening from events or leaving Friday morning to attend events. Including on the Thursday and Friday a number of stall holders.

Thanks for that - it is far better coming from you rather than me.
