Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: Morticia Date: 09 Sep 01 - 06:07 PM he isn't on holiday, he's on business.....dammit all, wish social services did business trips! |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 09 Sep 01 - 07:42 PM Yeah, but they'd be to places like Borstal (which is actually quite a nice village) or Bognor. No-one ever heard of a social service conference in Barcelona or the Bahamas did they? LTS |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: JudeL Date: 10 Sep 01 - 10:10 AM Actually, last year there was an international conference held in Madrid - something about discussing social work provision in different countries and establishing base line minimum expectations. The only reason I know is because UNISON was invited and sent 2 delegates.... & no I didn't wangle my way into going. Jude P.S.(sorry about the thread creep) P.P.S. check out the events photos - last year's Towersey - I have some more to add, when I've had a chance to scan some more in. |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: GUEST,Fiona Date: 11 Sep 01 - 07:45 AM Folk is a terrible addiction to have....perhaps there should be meetings and stuff! You could all sit around and discuss how best to give up being cold, muddy and smelly whilst singing about death, doom and woe for five days. Hurrah, the sound of the melodians has faded but the memories linger on. Oliver! etc. |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: Morticia Date: 11 Sep 01 - 01:26 PM Hello sweetie....glad to hear the melodeons have faded...but you don't want to go saying perjorative stuff about folk music here...you are severely outnumbered! ( I'm assuming that it was my daughter who just posted, certainly sounds like her).Got your internet back then? |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: Noreen Date: 11 Sep 01 - 04:22 PM Pejorative?? It's all true! Is it getting to you then, Fiona? :0) Noreen |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: GUEST,skipy Date: 11 Sep 01 - 04:43 PM I think that men who wear dresses at Folk Festivals are very sad indeed! and I should know, for I am one, roll on the next chance! Perhaps somewhere in Northamptonshire in late September! |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: alanww Date: 13 Sep 01 - 05:24 AM LIFT FOR ROD SHEARMAN'S SISTER TO BROMYARD FF Those attending Towersey FF will know that Rod Shearman's ashes were scattered along the road from the festival site to the Barn at the Three Horseshoes where he enjoyed singing. It was therefore a very emotional weekend and one I shall always remember. I know that many Mudcatters attended. His sister Greta Alexander was one of his relatives who attended and it was her first folk festival. She enjoyed it so much that she also plans to come to Bromyard FF. As she is not online, my reason for making this posting is to ask for a lift for her from Herne Hill in South East London where she lives. Alternatively, if that is not possible, she says that she can get a train to Worcester, arriving around the Friday lunchtime/early afternoon. (I would give her a lift from there myself but I will already be at Bromyard by mid morning). Please can someone help? Her telephone numbers are 020 7274 6638 (home) and 020 7277 1374 (work). Thanks! "Here's to the friends that I've yet to make ...!" |

Subject: RE: Towersey 2001 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 13 Sep 01 - 04:26 PM She sent me some of Rod's CD's and didn't put a return address in them, any chance you can PM me the address please?? I want to say thank you. LTS |
