We can sort Andy, but does anyone have anything suitable for the ah...er.......um...... slightly bigger and shorter than average female. Actually I am no where near bloody average! Sob sob Jillie. I had a lovely posh frock too!! |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Richard Bridge Date: 24 Aug 08 - 12:30 PM It sounds great fun but the fact that instruments are barred means I cannot - and I shall be at Chaversham playing for Bishpo Gundluf anyway. |

Dave is not well. Its not entirely clear what it is but probably some sort of unusual hernia according to the doctor. We tried him camping at Shrewsbury and I had to run him home after just one night, (not an option from Dorset) so we will miss you all love Ann and Dave |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 27 Aug 08 - 05:45 AM Oddly enough, I know my way when drink partaken is, but I never drive when I do... so I'm sort of stuck. I just about remember it, and at least I'll remember the bits I've been to before. We're leaving as soon as possible on Friday - i.e., when the child is upright and conscious, so that's about midday.

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Andy Jackson Date: 27 Aug 08 - 05:51 AM You will no doubt have seen this thread Colin's Song Has anyone cobbled a tune together so perhaps we could hear and perhaps join in, during WW. His sad demise was announced during the sing last year and it seems appropriate to remember him in this way. Andy |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Andy Jackson Date: 27 Aug 08 - 05:55 AM Having just posted the above I sat and sang it to Tom Lewis's "Recal" / Shanty Man" and with a bit of poetic and musical licence I think it goes. Andy |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: GUEST,Oldnickilby Date: 27 Aug 08 - 08:21 AM Oh no! Its the last mile that is the difficult bit at least it keeps the non folkies away. Well one things for sure Jacky and I are looking forward to it and with a bit of luck I might avenge last years humiliation when all I did was to praise My Leige on the vastness of his member. Not as was mis-reported . |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: John J Date: 27 Aug 08 - 08:47 AM Panic over! My booking receipt and a map arrived in the post this morning. Liz, PM me if you want me to fax / email the map to you. John |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 27 Aug 08 - 09:56 AM I have map, I have experience, I have local knowledge even.... but I'll still get lost within a 5 mile radius of the place! LTS |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Dave Earl Date: 28 Aug 08 - 09:53 AM Noreen There is beer (and other stuff) in the singing tents but you may want to get some wine for the banquet. Dave |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Cats Date: 28 Aug 08 - 02:57 PM Noreen, don't forget your costume for the banquet or you can hire one for a small donation. If you want a final course don't forget the stilton and port as well. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Phot Date: 28 Aug 08 - 03:42 PM Jack and Joline for Lord and Lady of the Manor?? *g* Wassail!! Chris |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Noreen Date: 28 Aug 08 - 05:43 PM I don't have anything suitable Cats, so am planning to attend the costume workshop. Port and goblets packed, cheese in fridge, good weather organised. Will pack warm clothes for campfire sessions- unless I can share your cape?! :0) |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Phot Date: 29 Aug 08 - 12:51 AM Morning all! Its here, my first whole festival in two years! Ican't wait to ge there, see you all soon. Wassail!! Chris |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Cats Date: 29 Aug 08 - 03:44 AM Noreen, I'm not bringing the red one from Maine, just the black velvet one for the banquet. Jon has already decided that he's sharing it so it should be really cosy under there!!! Last night at around midnight we realised that we had not seen Isolde of the White Paws for a long time, so thinking I had shut her in the garage went on a hunt for her. No Isolde! panic sets in... had she curled up in the builders van... It was at that moment that inspiration hit me. She had been 'helping' pack the van for Wareham. There she was curled up fast asleep ready in the camper to come to Wareham with us this morning. It must be that she has heard so much about it that she wanted to come too. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 29 Aug 08 - 03:56 AM I'm sure Limpit would be happy to keep her amused! I'm trying to disuade Raven Kitty from sleeping in my rucksack... he thinks it's his. Isolde might have a playmate! LTS |

Even a gluten free cream tea that was a lovely surprise. We really enjoyed the weekend and meeting Old friends and new Gilly & Tony |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 31 Aug 08 - 04:12 PM Ah, so you were the 'wheat allergy person'! Hope you liked your fried eggies in the morning! Great weekend, good to see some old friends and remind them the were actually there last year! Jack is still 'dry' and looked fabulous in his new Icelandic jumper. Filthy weather coming back - it took us three hours just to get from Ferndown to Fleet... about 70 miles. Looking forward to next year already! LTS |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Herga Kitty Date: 31 Aug 08 - 04:54 PM Thanks to everyone for a great Wail - it was an extra treat to have the Red Arrows flying display during the final singaround this afternoon. Glad I stayed till the end, even though the journey home took twice as long as usual. Looking forward to next year! Kitty PS And thanks to Russ and Red Fox for the great beers |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Phot Date: 31 Aug 08 - 05:23 PM That beer was really rather good! Wassail!! Chris |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: daughter Date: 31 Aug 08 - 05:49 PM Ta all for positive feedback about the beer, all constructive thoughts would also be welcome, of course. I'll get the boy to chat back when he finally climbs out of his bath of muscle soak!!! (Perhaps a separate beer thread?!). Yep, journey back to Essex was interesting and he heroically drove all the way!! How fantastic to see you all, gorgeous weekend, love to all. I'll type up the words to our banquet song and post to Idris, would love to see the others 'coz I couldn't make out half of the funny lines at the time! xxxx PS Apprentice Pig Turner Barnes will be eyeing up appropriate spits for Jack for next year as per one of our verses :-) xx |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: John J Date: 31 Aug 08 - 06:01 PM I arrived home in Altrincham at 10.15pm...just a little tired! This was my first 'Wail' and I had a really great weekend. Very many thanks to all those who put in so much hard work to make it such a success. I was lovely to see old friends and make new ones - and to have such a bloody good sing, even at 3.30am this morning! One MAJOR adverse criticism....not enough of the 'Gold' beer! Best wishes all, John |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Hawker Date: 31 Aug 08 - 08:51 PM Fab weekend chaps! Great to be back after 2 years being absent! A really great one this year with fine weather, fine singing, great beer, great food and the most excellent of company! nice to see so many catters and to catch up. Knackered after running our folk club this evening till midnight, after staying up till 4.30 am last night / morning then driving back to Cornwall! Have photos.....will post somewhere and give directions in due course. Cheers, Lucy |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 01 Sep 08 - 02:31 AM Daughter - was that you mentioned on the Johnnie Walker show - driving back from Verwood to Essex? Just caught it as we pulled into Fleet services after a gruelling 70 miles at an average speed of 28mph along the M3. The beer was extremely good, I didn't get enough of it but next year, I will try harder! LTS |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Cats Date: 01 Sep 08 - 05:29 AM Thanks to Alan and Nicky for another fabulous wail. Also all the people behind the scenes, in the kitchen, task force, those running the sings, behind the bar.. me for bringing the cream safely from Cornwall!!! The beer was execellent and I appreciated the discussion with Russ re the porter. It has excellent potential. He just has to bring his final brew for me to try in Cornwall before it goes on sale. The only sad thing about the Wail, for me, is that it signals the end of the summer. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: GRex Date: 01 Sep 08 - 07:06 AM Yes, another great Wail. Excellent songs and voices. Many new faces. Tents dried nicely and I've just finished hosing the horses whatsits from the groundsheet; put a toad in the garden undergrowth. Poor little beggar looked bewildered when I took him from the car. Looking forward to next year's Wail. Are we now officially the Verwood Wailers? GRex |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: daughter Date: 01 Sep 08 - 07:29 AM LTS YES! It was me on the Johnny Walker request thingy! As we trudged slowly along in the monsoon, I needed a "Shout Out" (as I believe they say amongst the young and media trendy these days) to all our Verwood buddies xxx. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Cats Date: 01 Sep 08 - 09:34 AM GRex ~ who was more surprised, you or the toad? |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: SussexCarole Date: 01 Sep 08 - 04:35 PM Brilliant weekend...and as a bonus our table managed to capture the piggy's head this year despite the alarm set by the Task Force. Our journey home wasn't blighted by traffic - but just by my non sense of direction while Andrew was asleep - We saw the White Horse from a totally diferent direction this year! Big, big thank yous to all who helped to make this such a wonderful weekend. Here's to next year! Special good luck wishes to Sara's (Bavis) daughter Jenny for her charity channel swim in the very near future (wow what a woman she is). Please keep us posted Sara! Carole & Andrew x |

Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Jock O' Dreams Date: 01 Sep 08 - 05:34 PM Our bodies are wrecked, our voices are shot! (temporarilly I hope) but somehow there is a warm satisfied glow that comes only from spending a week-end in such fine company. Thanks to all who made it possible especially Alan & Nicky and the tireless kitchen staff and Task Force. See you all next year then!! Jim & Annie |

See you next year Graham ( Also now known as Marigold apparently.Have thought about auctioning my gloves for Sara's charity' Thanks for the thanks but all credit goes to Nicky who spends hours slaving away over a hot stove before the festival and does it gluten free. She's a super star in my eyes thanks Nicky. Plus I am not the only one, so thanks to Grace, Liz, Jude, Mark, Graham, Colin, Tom. Dick, Harry................................... I would bid on your gloves but I'd be worried they might expect me to use them next year and I don't love washing up that much! So I'll just donate a bit more to Jenny instead. http://www.justgiving.com/jenniferbest oops that's as bad as mentioning CD's I think. Whilst I am on the boat I will remember the Mary Ellen Carter, in fact I don't think I will ever forget it. Thanks Again. Sarer xxx PS Graham I couldn't find you to say good bye so good bye and take care. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: Cats Date: 01 Sep 08 - 11:45 PM I think Jen needs her own thread... I'll start it and you can all contribute. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: GUEST,Psychomorris Date: 02 Sep 08 - 02:02 AM Brilliant weekend. Will keep coming along as long as life will let me. Never had a chance to Thank Alan or the rest of those who made this excellent weekend possible. So thanks one and all. The beer is 'what we want' well done. Thanks to all those helpers who kept us well fed and of course the most friendly company you meet anywhere in this world. The singing as usual is of a high standard and every one encouraging. Alan please do not stop running this weekend. Thanks one and all. Allan. |
Subject: RE: Wareham Wail 2008 From: GUEST,bavis Date: 02 Sep 08 - 03:41 AM Just keep swimming is her motto maybe that would be a good title. Don't like the look of the weather and hope that hurricane does not come this way! Thanks Cats |

Pete will have to make loads for next year... we could have it with the lunchtime picnic or the afternoon cream tea or the evening meal as a desert or.. as a very final course after the port and stilton! |
