Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Polly Squeezebox Date: 23 May 07 - 04:59 PM I'll be dropping in on your singarounds at Chippenham, Kitty, but would really like to wish the new Bude festival every success. Also wish everybody attending a really good time and good weather. Especially good wishes to you Lucy - congratulations for a job well done. Now - everybody put pressure on the powers that be whilst you are down there so that it doesn't coincide with Chippenham next year - then I (and a lot of others) can join you. Polly (Jack & Zak) |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Herga Kitty Date: 23 May 07 - 04:50 PM Sounds great, really sorry I can't be there, but I'm running singarounds at Chippenham - if anyone is heading east from Bude and wants to drop in at Chippenham between 2 and 4pm on Sat, Sun or Mon (26-28), please come and support the Cause singarounds! Have a great time, and I hope the Shiny Bums aren't too knackered for their gigs the following week! Kitty |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: BB Date: 23 May 07 - 02:43 PM Ah, I seem to have misunderstood gazza2's difficulty with the 'blue clicky thing' - I thought he meant making one. I'll try again myself in a moment. In the meantime, I just wanted to say good luck to everyone involved in the Bude festival. Wish we could be there but this may explain why we can't - if anyone's interested, that is! Whether you are or not, you might find the link interesting. Have a great time, and I hope the weather's better than is being forecast at present! Barbara |

I expect you can guess where the above posting should have gone, ho hum. Tee hee, Andy Will there be an appropriate new song at Bude? |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Andy Jackson Date: 22 May 07 - 03:56 AM Just a passing point. I seem to remember that there is more original material in the Mary Rose than in the Victory! If this is the case there should be no problem in restoring an authentic Cutty Sark. Andy |

(she says quaking in her boots!) There is a meeting tonight so there'll probably be millions by the end of the day! and I'll wish I'd kept my big mouth shut! How about Breezy and the windswept women? cheers, Lucy |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: George Papavgeris Date: 21 May 07 - 09:05 AM How about The Beauties and The Beast? Thorn Between two Roses? The Breezeblocks? Thorn Apart? |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Moses Date: 21 May 07 - 07:13 AM Hope to make it down Saturday morning/mid-day. Sadly I'll miss the Shiny Bums if they're only around on Friday as I have to work until gone 4pm and even with the best will in the world and a following wind, I can't make it down there for 8.30pm. Hills, if we don't get to sing together (which I hope we do) during the weekend, I'm around for a while on Bank holiday Monday. How about us gate-crashing Breezy's spot on the harbour? We do outnumber him and we can be 'The Breezettes and Breezy' and not just 'Breezy and the Breezettes'. Christine |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: My guru always said Date: 21 May 07 - 07:00 AM Well done with the program George and you too Lucy! Am currently collecting hugs to bring to Bude with me from various Catters who are unable to come to Cornwall at the weekend. Lucy, I do hope you were touching wood when you said that about the 1 problem, these things usually come in three's! I can do some of the local taxiing for you if you like, just let me know where & when! |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Hawker Date: 21 May 07 - 04:13 AM George, Where do you hide your wings? Thank you so much for all your help, Looking forward to meeting you in 4 days......... Aaaarrgghhh!! Panic, panic..... is it really only 4 days! Oh well, as I see it, I only have 1 problem to iron out, so It SHOULD be a great weekend! I shall not be drinking until the Monday, as I am being taxi driver - the sacrifices some of us make......... ;0) Come on down to sunny Bude, we can't do it without you! Cheers, Lucy |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: George Papavgeris Date: 21 May 07 - 03:17 AM The programme is up. Have a look at it and tell me it isn't going to be a great weekend, if you can! |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: The Unicorn Man Date: 20 May 07 - 02:44 PM Yep. See you all on Saturday. YIPPEE. |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: My guru always said Date: 20 May 07 - 04:12 AM Back on-line again but only temporarily, will need to install another new hard drive in a few weeks after my first carpal tunnell op. Really looking forward to this, it looks like it's going to be one of those lovely relaxing weekends with good music, company and Port & Cheese (stop diluting that beer Mr Barden, it'll get too salty *grin*)!! Just hope that Lady Fate is playing on our side too and brings good weather and safe travelling to all. Also hope to get to see Breezy 'do his thing' on Padstow harbour sometime the week afterwards and also going to try to get to the Wellie session in Boscastle. Haven't been past the Devon border since my honeymoon in 1989 so I hope my passport's still valid! |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: George Papavgeris Date: 18 May 07 - 06:56 AM And both Bude beaches have just been recommended by the Marine Conservation Society for achieving the highest cleanliness standard. |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: The Barden of England Date: 18 May 07 - 02:30 AM Hillary & Geordie Peorgie - - - How can you do this to me*!$£*&* You'll be scoffing Port & Cheese while I'm stuck in Kent. We arranged for youngest daughter to be home over Whitsun so we're unable to come to the festival. I'm right fed up now, I'm even crying in my beer:-) Have a lovely time, and Geordie - give hugs to Jenny and hope she gets well soon, and tell her that her 'other dad' is wishing her well. John Barden |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Geordie-Peorgie Date: 17 May 07 - 05:28 PM By heck, Kitty!! Thows got a canny memory! The've not sung together for years but the' did dee a canny job at Redditch. For a while they were puttin' together an act, "Pollies On The Shore" aboot the lasses that were left behind when the men went off te the war/sea/pitwhatever - They might tek it up again when Uni/College is oot of the way. Aall love te yez G-P |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: My guru always said Date: 17 May 07 - 04:43 AM GP - looks like we have the makings of Port & Cheese parties at the Rugby Club then, will save up any currently in the fridge & see what can be added in!! Sorry to hear about the poorly JennyPen, hope she gives herself time to recover properly. BTW, agree The Lovely Shirl name, sign up Girlie - I'll get you singing yet! Breezy, sounds from your text you got a hectic day today so I'll save the Choccie Bikkies for another time - may bring them to Padstow harbour so you can have a tea-break whilst others busk on your behalf. So sorry you'll be missing this Sue, but know you'll have a Fab time at Chippenham! |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Hawker Date: 16 May 07 - 07:13 PM We'll miss you Sue, we have a distinct lack of morris dancers! Herbaceous would have been just the thing! Have a good time at Chippers and give them all my love up there! Cheers, Lucy |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Sue the Borderer Date: 16 May 07 - 07:10 PM It sounds so tempting! - but I really am committed to Chippenham. And I wont even see anyone who decides to drop into Bideford Folk Club on the Thursday evening since I'll be at Chipp. by then. Hope it goes wonderfully well, Lucy. Sue |
Subject: RE: FREE Bude (UK) Folk Festival 25-27 May From: Herga Kitty Date: 16 May 07 - 06:27 PM Well it's good to read that Chris's account of what the Shiny Bums are doing is reasonably consistent with my account on the Shiny Bums thread! Geordie - best wishes to JennyPen. I think I heard her sing Plaisirs d'Amour with her sister in a singaround hosted by Bill Jones at the Four Fools Festival when it was in Redditch. Kitty |
