Subject: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Catherine Jayne Date: 10 Apr 04 - 05:13 PM There will be a session in the back bar of the Black Lion Pub in Plaistow East London from 7:30pm to welcome Sorcha to UK on Sunday 18th April. It will be a mixed session....singing and instruments. Its a cosy pub and serves a decent pint. It would be really nice to see as many catters as possible there and get Sorcha trip off on a good note! If you need directions please PM me or Micca!! See you there |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Liz the Squeak Date: 10 Apr 04 - 07:08 PM There's going to be a session the night before at our place, so if you want to come to both, but don't fancy travelling back and forth, we have some crash space if anyone wants to stay over. LTS |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: harpmaker Date: 10 Apr 04 - 07:24 PM "A cosy pub" Ok, maybe. But "a decent pint" in London?? now c'mon! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Leadfingers Date: 10 Apr 04 - 07:47 PM Youngs and Fullers both brew a decent pint - And there are a few good small breweries too. And the pint ISNT all froth like some of the Northern beers. |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: harpmaker Date: 10 Apr 04 - 08:38 PM Leadfingers, as long as your music does'nt go like southern beer-flat & orible!

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Catherine Jayne Date: 11 Apr 04 - 05:09 AM The pub has Guest Beers when we were in there on Friday there was Timothy Tailors Landlord, Curage Directors and Broadside I am sure there will be something there for people to drink...Hey if a Northern Lass like me can find a decent pint here I am pretty sure others can! Liz....We will see what time the dinner party with some of the Ravens finishes ( and if we are in a fit state to walk!) and we might come over to the house session....as those of you who know what our dinner parties are like, they have been known to carry on well into the wee small hours of the morning!!! See you at the airport on Saturday Sorcha!!! |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Skipjack K8 Date: 12 Apr 04 - 09:59 AM I was hoping to consumate our union in open session at this one, sweetheart, but I have a gig in Whitby on the Saturday night, and need to be in Edinburgh on the Monday, so much as I would love to come, I fear I cannot. Brace yourself for the Yorkshire Gathering, though! |

|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: GUEST,Hootenanny Date: 13 Apr 04 - 04:48 AM Whoops! as they say Can you be a little more forthcoming re the style of music at this session? British?, Irish?, Scottish, ? Appalachian? and presumably accoustic. |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Dave Bryant Date: 13 Apr 04 - 04:58 AM Linda and I should be at The Black Lion on Sunday - are we sure that Kendall will be there as well ? (jacqui ?). I'm not sure if we'll be able to make your session Liz - are they still closing Blackwall Tunnel southbound on Saturdays. Harpmaker - if you had been brought up on our superb southern beers, I'm sure that you would never have had any problems with the size of your penis ! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: jacqui.c Date: 13 Apr 04 - 05:26 AM Dave - The plan is to take Kendall to the afternoon session at the White Horse and then hit the North Circ. for the Black Lion in the evening. What time's everybody getting there? What's the parking like? |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Catherine Jayne Date: 13 Apr 04 - 05:40 AM There is a car park for the pub just off the main road so thats not a problem. We will be there from just before 7:30pm. The session will be in the back bar. Music is all accoustic and British, Irish, Scottish, Appalachian is all welcome will we see you there GUEST,Hootenanny?? |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: manitas_at_work Date: 13 Apr 04 - 08:34 AM Hootenanny, If I'm any judge of those who said they will be there it will be mostly singing, with a predominance of chorus songs both accompanied and unaccompanied. The content of a session is always defined by the performers actually there irregardless of whether it's supposed to be Irish trad, English Country, French, come-all-ye or whatever. I, for one, will be there and hope to play a few tunes. I mostly play Irish but will happily play along with other styles to fit in with others. Just suck it and see... |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: GUEST,Hootenanny Date: 13 Apr 04 - 11:27 AM Thanks for the info Fingers but I don't suck anything until I'm sure that it's safe so I'll be pickin' and grinnin' elsewhere. Have a good night and I trust that your two visitors do the same. |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Nigel Parsons Date: 13 Apr 04 - 11:37 AM map Zoom in or out as required. Unfortunately, although London would be a possibility, East London is 'pushing it a bit' for a single evening session. But, ENJOY Nigel |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Sorcha Date: 13 Apr 04 - 01:48 PM Hoot, I'm coming over from US and I play all kinds of music. I'm quite sure it would be safe. Well, as 'safe' as Mudcat Gathers ever are.......grin. |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Micca Date: 13 Apr 04 - 06:47 PM On the map that Nigel has so kindly linked to, the white square with blue border and letter P in it is the pub Car Park, right next to the Black Lion. the back Bar is in Rixhmond st side of the pub , its the last door before the archway, but you will probably hear us!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: SINSULL Date: 13 Apr 04 - 06:51 PM Have fun guys, Micca - will you be wearing the cape? Very dashing. Your cap and Kendall's cap - that's a picture! SINS |

|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Richard Bridge Date: 13 Apr 04 - 07:05 PM Hmm, this is getting silly, two song/sessions in Maidstone Fri and Sat, and now Sun nite as well. But it is only about an hour's drive... Tempting... |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Sorcha Date: 13 Apr 04 - 07:50 PM Come along, Richard! It will be fun! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Micca Date: 13 Apr 04 - 07:57 PM The Only Torrington That I know of is in Devon, Here so unless Sorcha visits it on her way to or from Cornwall next week, who knows? It may not be far out of the way? |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Catherine Jayne Date: 14 Apr 04 - 06:54 PM I don't think we will get to the Saturday house session as dinner won't be until about 8pm and there are 4 courses...at least!!! We shall see you all at the Black Lion on Sunday evening though!! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Sorcha Date: 14 Apr 04 - 07:01 PM I'm going to be soooooo knackered.......but joyful! |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Dave Bryant Date: 16 Apr 04 - 11:04 AM Richard - Where are these Maidstone sessions then ? |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Dave Bryant Date: 16 Apr 04 - 11:56 AM From what I can gather, Blackwall Tunnel will be closed soutbound on Sunday night after 9pm. Originally the stoppages should have finished at the end of March, but I gather the the work is now being extended to August at least. Ah well another night when we'll have to drive all the way to Dartford Bridge (and the same distance back the other side - an extra 17 miles) - and pay a quid for the priviledge. |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Micca Date: 16 Apr 04 - 12:53 PM Dave , you could drive in towards town and either cross by the Rotherhithe Tunnel or over Tower Bridge, they should only add about 3 and 5 miles respectively!! |
|
Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Liz the Squeak Date: 17 Apr 04 - 03:43 AM Or you could bunk down here in what is rapidly becoming the Mudcat Doss House..... LTS |

Subject: RE: Session East London for Sorcha!!!!!! From: Herga Kitty Date: 17 Apr 04 - 03:39 PM Thanks to El Greko, it looks as though I can make it too, without needing the Doss House. Thanks v much El Greko! Kitty |
