Sorry Jane but we went to give our folding caravan it's spring clean on the storage site and someb--------- has stolen it, so I'll have to drive up to the sessions - it's scuppered a few of my plans, needless to say.   Carol

Give us the details of stolen folder, any distinguishing features?

We will keep an eye open for it when we are away caravaning.

We've only got a 2 berth caravan, but you're welcome to crash out in the awning

Only 2 weeks to go now. All the refurbs should be done by next week so we will have some good areas for singing and music sessions. Of course it will be hot by then so we will all be sitting outside and enjoying the sunshine. We are hoping to have the barbeque on Saturday night as last year as it seemed to suit most people but there is also excellent food on offer in the dining area if you want to be posh. Could we have a quick hands up for Sunday lunch jist to give an idea of numbers. As before it would be preferred if we wait until the latter end of lunchtime (around 2pm) to allow for the regular trade to finish. Anyway if you have had the cooked breakfast you won't be ready to eat before then.

Arrrggghhh - I've just realised I've double-booked! I can't make the Yorkshire Gathering as I'll be on my way to the Chez Wyndham-Reed in France for a week. Have a great time everyone.

Just called into the pub on the way home from CatsPhiddle and miccas wedding. The alterations are all just about done and it has made a big difference to the feel of the larger area which now has conventional pub type benches and so feels less like an overflow from the dining room. Should make it much better for having song and music sessions.

The Black Dogs are wondering how many bodies they are expecting to provision for - how much beer to order / food to cook etc..
Can people who are intending to attend use this thread to confirm your spaces in the field and how many people you expect to have with you. Although it is a Mudcat Gathering we will welcome any other passing folkies or people who just fancy hovering about for the atmosphere.
Mrs.Duck is compiling a list from previous thread postings, but while she is doing that I'll get the ball rolling......

Spaces booked for :-
Me, her and "them" - caravan.

Quack!

To clear up any confusion for those who weren't at the gathering last year. The pub will be putting on a barbeque on the Saturday teatime. There will be burgers and other stuff and you pay them for what you have. It was all very good last year and reasonably priced. The pub also do a good selection of meals in the restaurant bit and sandwiches. Tracy has also said she will do breakfasts again this year - hooray! Please bring expandible waist trousers to accomodate the weekends increases.
