Mr.Padgett, my reputation will be in shreds and tatters, and no-one will marry me now.I'm doomed to a lonely life of spinsterhood.

Best thing at Whitby? Johnny Handle interviewing Louis Killen. They only got as far as 1954 and Louis is not even aware that what he is singing is folk music yet. I think its a conspiracy to ensure that they get booked for at least the next 2 years

2008 Louis Killen and the folk scene.
2009 Louis Killen in America.

Ken - I thought that Johnny and Louis made it to 1956 or 7 (it was certainly after Louis had finished his apprenticeship as a cabinet maker and returned from Oxford's Catholic Worker's College, because we were left in absolutely no doubt about that by JH)! Absolute magic - Derek Schofield's interview with Vic and Viv Legg the previous Sunday was a treat, too.

Good pics Collierlad! But I can't remember half of it.
Less aspersions please mr Pagett, you know there is no truth to it.
Well done to everyone for making it such a great week.
Recovering now to build up strength for next year.

Hi Kitty

Ok 54, 56 57, Either way there is still a lot of ground to cover and I hope we get the chance to hear the rest of it. I would have indeed should have got to a lot more of the interviews but somehow I just cant put late night carousing and early morning starts together anymore. This ageing process is a sod.

Reading quickly through the pieces here I dont see anything about the Four Star trio thier first of hopefully many appearances at Whitby. They were superb. A treat to have such class musicians at the festival. Then in addition you get one of the very best comic song writers.

Great stuff

Good to see you most of you at Glaisdale. Sorry I was only able to fit in one trip to the Station Inn this year. I need to split myself in two so that both the storyteller and the singer can get full attention! Enjoyed Whitby though my legs are taking a time to recover from trudging up and down the West Cliff. Hopefully will have new songs when I come next year. Roll on Whitby 2008!!!
