Any details on the motel would be appreciated - showers, double rooms,cost,(do we book it direct or through you?)? Helen thinks March is too early for the campervan, so we could be customers for 3 nights! |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: treaties1 Date: 14 Jan 08 - 05:20 PM Hi Ray, Sounds like a good excuse for coming out of self imposed hibernation. Im interested in motel accommodation please for the three nights Theresa |

Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Les from Hull Date: 15 Jan 08 - 01:20 PM Maggie and I would like motel accommodation for the Saturday night, please Ray. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 16 Jan 08 - 10:41 AM OK The Campervan situation should not be a problem as no cost and lockable gate/fence by arrangement The Booking of the motel accommodation will need which nights needed ~ March 21/22/23 is Good Friday/Sat/Easter Sunday your phone number and address and please note that the rooms are twin beds at £30 per night (£15 each, I believe All this please PM or email me if you know my email address [I dont think I am permitted to put my email address!] or phone me the motel will then contact you to confirm all arrangements!! Note ASDA is closed Easter Sunday so breakfasts may be a problem I have suggested that Saturday pm may have some folk music/ song "spots" of say 15 minutes per act Comperes for Friday/Sat pm singarounds and evening are needed, so volunteers please? 2 hours is enough! Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Les from Hull Date: 17 Jan 08 - 05:52 AM I've sent you a pm Ray. Maggie and I would be happy do some singaround hosting (again) - just like old times, eh? Les |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 17 Jan 08 - 12:05 PM Many thanks Maggie and Les I have printed off your details and those from Theresa who probably needs a mate for a twin room but I will check this out. I will be seeing Dave Bottomley on Friday, the Keel is his drinking spot from 6.30pm on Fridays DB says he may be going to Hull sometime soon also Thanks to Carol and Maggie and Les for offers re compering, still room for all Should be good!! Thanks Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: MoorleyMan Date: 17 Jan 08 - 06:51 PM Hey, you haven't mislaid my offers have you Ray?... I know I'm easily missed... |

Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 04 Feb 08 - 10:26 AM Any one fancy a Saturday afternoon concert spot in the Club room please contact me Musicians session will be on also in the afternoon Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: GUEST,Sarah,Barnsley Date: 06 Feb 08 - 08:19 AM Ray, i've a feeling the asda might be open on easter sunday, limited hours, all thouse last minute eggs and the like (unless you knwo something I don't)- I've emailed their customer services to ask for opening times, anyway, hope you don't think i'm interfering Sarah |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 06 Feb 08 - 11:25 AM Many thanks Sarah!! No problem, breakfasts on Easter Sunday will be a problem I fear, but many camper vans will have cookers etc and alfresco if the weather is good seems good with a bottle of wine Easter Egg followed by Lynne and Pat Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: MC Fat Date: 07 Feb 08 - 09:02 AM I think you will find that Easter Sunday is one of the few days of the year that supermarkets can't open at all. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 07 Feb 08 - 09:24 AM Nationwide then Jimmy Looks like breakfasts "chez moi" Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: nutty Date: 07 Feb 08 - 12:08 PM Could something be arranged with The Keel Inn, Ray. Surely they will be serving breakfsats. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 08 Feb 08 - 11:38 AM Well Hazel there are some personal reasons that may prohibit this, this year, which we are fully aware of! Saturday morning will have more than ample choice including ASDA and anywhere in Barnsley! If breakfast on Sunday am is problematic I think the afternoon at the Keel will be doing meals of some description, as they will during Saturday afternoon by arrangement I think this is one to sort when we get there, but I will check Sunday meal times at the Keel asap Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 26 Feb 08 - 05:57 AM Hello all who are coming! I am keen to sort out some sort of list and have contacted many by email to this end However I haven't email addresses for everyone so please let me have your email address and I can forward a list for timings etc mainly for the Saturday afternoon PM me here or check out Barnsley Folk club website for contact details Many thanks Ray |

Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 12 Mar 08 - 12:20 PM All replies made!! Any Catters coming? please make yourselves known if you are new to the singaround Cheers Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: nutty Date: 20 Mar 08 - 05:00 AM Sadly it doesn't look as if I'm going to make it. I have a very severe dose of that horrible tummy bug that's going round, I feel as weak as a kitten and am not fit to drive anywhere. Best regards to all my friends, I really was looking forward to seeing you all. Hazel If anyone is still looking for a good weekend of singing and general tomfoolery - I can highly recommend this event. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Carol Date: 20 Mar 08 - 06:12 AM Just to say that the Wetherspoon's pub in Market Street, The Joseph Bramer will be serving breakfasts from 9am on the Sunday morning - good value as well. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 20 Mar 08 - 11:13 AM O that's good news Carol! It's about 10 mins walk fromn the Keel 5 mins up hill and then flat 5 mins We went there last year on the Saturday pm Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Mrs.Duck Date: 20 Mar 08 - 03:04 PM Geoff and I hope to be there. |

Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Dennis the Elder Date: 21 Mar 08 - 06:27 AM Hi Ray, Me and Di hope to get there Saturday with Dave Nut if my one song can help Dennis See you then |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Mrs.Duck Date: 22 Mar 08 - 08:05 AM Sadly the dreaded lurgy has struck the duckpond so we won't get there after all. Sing us something ! |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: GUEST,bobcat Date: 23 Mar 08 - 02:12 PM Thank you Ray and committee for a great weekend. What an excellent venue..great pub and secure parking and so easy to find being next to Asda.I'm sorry we didn't stay over but will next year..assuming I'm not doped up on antibiotics! What a great crowd of participants...lovely music session and a good idea to have prebooked spots as well as a singaround. A great formula!!I hope you all had a good time on Sunday as well. I'm looking forward to next year!!!!! |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 23 Mar 08 - 02:42 PM Many thanks for your support First year at the Keel Many things to come hopefully at this new venue!! Watch this space Ray for Barnsley fc |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Zany Mouse Date: 23 Mar 08 - 02:46 PM Sadly we didn't make it, mainly because I got dragged off to hospital again. Athough back home now I certainly didn't feel like going out at all today. It's snowing here at the moment - great big, thick, white flakes. Rhiannon |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 23 Mar 08 - 03:10 PM Really sorry you couldn't make Rhiannon Always pleased to see you and Mick Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: GUEST,bobcat Date: 24 Mar 08 - 08:44 AM OOPs pressed the wrong button. I look forward to more at the same venue.Again thanks for a great weekend. Diane and Peter |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 24 Mar 08 - 10:08 AM Yes the Keel which has the secure car park and was well used is a big plus I would like to use the venue more with assistance! The night would have to be Friday as preferred by the Land Lord Saturday tends to get busy with football fans! Hopefully next Easter will take place at the Keel and I am very grateful to all who compered! Peter Taylor, Dave Kidman, Les and Maggie, Judie Knight and also to the musicians and singers who did "spots" It was a matter of a quart into a pint pot time wise, but the singaround format on Friday and Saturday evening and Sunday until 5.30pm gave further time! Thanks to all who helped in the raffle, Neville, Michelle, Sue and Molly, Linda and the 99p and £1 items etc donated Thanks again to everyone including Lynne and Pat and Steve and Maggie and Carole and Andrew ~ well everyone!! Ray |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Aelfleda Date: 24 Mar 08 - 10:13 AM Great weekend Ray - thanks. Good pub, good beer, good acoustics & secure parking. Can we have a bit warmer weather next year though please? Cheers Jude |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: Les from Hull Date: 24 Mar 08 - 10:40 AM Maggie and I were lovely and warm in our centrally-heated motel room! But Easter was unusually this year. We had a great time and would have liked to stay for more, but you can't be everywhere and we wanted to be with Pistachio at her 50th birthday bash. Thanks very much to Ray and others who help organise and also to the staff at the Keel. A great venue and some great music. |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 25 Mar 08 - 04:02 AM Many thanks for the kind words Will pass on thoughts appropriately Hopefully Easter next year!! Ray for Barnsley folk Club |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: GUEST,Kelk Brigade Date: 25 Mar 08 - 04:32 AM Great weekend Ray, enjoyed by us all, great music and convivial atmosphere. Thanks to staff at the Keel and everyone who made it such a pleasurable weekend. Sorry we had to leave early but we heard that there was snowww on them Northern Fells so we had to go and savour it. If its any consolation it was even colder at Dent! Peter & Barbara |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: MoorleyMan Date: 25 Mar 08 - 02:27 PM Hear hear! Good on ya, Ray! (P&B alias Guest, Kelk Brigade - if you're reading this - have realised that I can't contact you by PM as a Guest.. are you able to contact me by PM instead, or failing which how might I get in touch?) |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: treaties1 Date: 25 Mar 08 - 07:00 PM Echoing all the earlier great thankyou posts. A super weekend which I thoroughly enjoyed.The motel was a great plus. Heres to the next one when hopefully missing friends will be able to make it.Sorry you didn't make it Nutty maybe see you soon Theresa |
Subject: RE: Easter Barnsley Singaround 2008 From: r.padgett Date: 26 Mar 08 - 02:14 PM Book yer spots for next year and DO let me have feedback ~ negative as well as positive please!! Easter might be a bit later next year and football results not a factor! Cheers Ray |
