Anne and I will be there from the Friday. I've been asked to run the sing at the Golf Club on the Friday night so hope to see everybody there!!
Anne's daughter Alison is playing at another venue at the same time so she is naturally going to see her and leaving me to get on with it!! Never come between a mum and her kids!!!

                         Cheers

Sad to report Badger and I won't be able to get to Banbury this year due to pressing service with another event.

Have a great time.

Hugs

Hey Dave, does this mean you'll be singing at the MudGather?

Brill to see that we'll have some wonderful Singers at Banbury, looking forward to it!! Yes Anne, the Golf Club is a Fabulous venue but there probably won't be a Snowman competition this time *I hope*

Don't forget the MudGather, it's 2pm-5pm Saturday - bring songs & tunes, hugs & chocolate! Oh, and raffle prizes too! I wonder if the 'perpetual raffle prize' will turn up.....

I'll be there!!!! I'm bringing the caravan. I still haven't sorted out my power problem but I don't intend to be in it for long (except to sleep)and I've still got gas. Naughty Forty is coming up by train and sharing with me. See you there.

Here's the Banbury Fest website!!

Looks like another fabulous festival in store, well done to Merek'n'Dary!! Am very glad about having Drayton for campers/caravans & Sings, it's a brill venue (even with snow) with an excellent & welcoming host. Really looking forward to it!

As soon as I get details of times for the Gather I'll let you know *grin*

Hello all you Catters!

Just to let you know that this year we will not be using the Town and Country Club for our song sessions, as it has sadly closed down!

The good news is that we will be holding these at Drayton Leisure Golf Centre, where we held our Song & Ale weekend in April this year. (Remember the snow!) The mini buses will be running people from and to the town. Also this is our campervan and caravan site this year, (No outdoor camping at Hanwell Fields this year because of building work) so for those of you with campervans or caravans, you will be able to stumble out of the sing and straight into bed!Nick will be getting in some Hook Norton Ales to aid your slumbers!

As well as song sessions there will be the usual Big Sing and Mudgather as well as other song sessions. This year we will be joined by Tom Lewis. More details to follow.

Tickets are selling fast and only a few days left to get them at the early-bird price.

Check out the website www.banburyfolkfestival.co.uk

Hope to see you there!

Merek'n'Dary
