Things are beginning to firm up on the performing venue for the Saturday night and I should be able to post details soon here and on the website. Currently we plan for an early evening start going on until late, with plenty of time for individual and collective performances. The venue hosts an occasional folk club so we may have some interested locals for audience and possibly one or two additional performers. It will probably be possible to provide food and drink (at cost price) at the venue which has a small kitchen.

For those who want B&B/inexpensive hotel who I haven't contacted personally yet, the following is very close to Mooland (5 minutes door to door by bus or about 20 minutes walk). It is also very close to local cafes, restaurants and shops and also to the 94 tram and 95 bus, both of which go to the city centre. This may be convenient for those who want to stay close to us rather than in the city.

Some people have already reserved floor space and we have a note of those, but if anybody else prefers this option please let me know as soon as possible
