Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: romanyman Date: 10 Sep 09 - 11:14 AM if enough interest there will be more, but sadly no matter what or when the arms try to do anything it seems to be a problem, i think this may well be the make or break session, shame as its such a great venue but no one seems to want it, its free , its wanted by the pub and regulars, they lay on food for all, they got third in the CAMRA survey, its easy to get to from anywhere yet its badly supported . |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: naughtyforty Date: 10 Sep 09 - 06:10 AM Really sorry I won't be able to make this one Ken, as both myself and the Little Apprentice enjoyed the last event we attended there. Hopefully there will be another later in the year? |

As I'm making it by public transport, I can't fetch Clive, but it's possible that there will be another attender from down my way. Not sure yet. I take it the session is still on Romanyman? Don T. |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: GUEST,Girl Friday Date: 25 Jul 09 - 06:19 PM Sounds a good venue for a folk club then. If weather is not good we will come to Crayford, but if weather good we will go to Deal. |

Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: Don(Wyziwyg)T Date: 24 Jul 09 - 04:08 AM A Polish pilot addressing the pupils at a very refined girls school, was explaining how he had downed three enemy planes. "They vos lined up in a row, zese three Fokkers, und I passed along ze line wiz guns firing, und all three burst into flames" he said. The headmistress jumped in quickly. "Now gels", she said, "I should explain that the Fokker was a make of German aircraft". "Yes Missis", said the Pole, "but zese Fokkers voss Messerschmidts". Don T. |

We can make a lot of (mostly)pleasant noises, over an extended period of time, so if there aren't many there we'll just get more exposure. Don T. |

Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: Mick Woods Date: 16 Jul 09 - 04:53 AM I've taken the liberty to advertise this event on the Folkmob web site I had to improvise a bit.

Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 15 Jul 09 - 07:44 PM Get me Facts Right. Sorry the Dutch Fokker Brothers did not only design it they made it and the German stuck a Swastica on each wing and mounted a bloody great Cannnon that fired through the prop shalft.More then a match for the Spitfire and deadly to Bombers. but production was limited. Its matched the Spitfire in everything but Monouvability. Do they do Spitfire beer in the Crayford Arms Romany Man? "CHOCKS AWAYS" Those Fokkers come out the sun" |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 15 Jul 09 - 07:25 PM The Fokker Brothers Designed The German FW 190. a Fighter Bomber that played Havoc with both American and British Bombers during WW2. I often sit in the cockpit of one at the War Museum. The Fokker brothers may well have been Dutch Richard, I wouldnt know but they designed a German Aircraft During ww2. Thats a Fact. The Lancaster Bomber crews nicknamed themselves Fokker Fodder during WW2. Kind Regards Pierre. I,ll be there Romany Man. |

THe Fokker triplane of Baron von Richthoven in WW1 was German. |

Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: melodeonboy Date: 14 Jul 09 - 06:53 AM (That applies to both dates by the way!) |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: melodeonboy Date: 14 Jul 09 - 06:51 AM I've got a gig in the evening, but I might try to come for the afternoon. I assume it starts at middayish. I may fly there in my Spitfire - where's the nearest landing strip? Chocs away! |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: naughtyforty Date: 14 Jul 09 - 04:19 AM I also will not be able to make either of those dates due to other committments. I will try and make later dates in the year though. Sorry Ken |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: The Barden of England Date: 14 Jul 09 - 03:59 AM Can't do 19th - I'm booked at Deal. 12th is Knockholt - Oh well. John Barden |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: Mick Woods Date: 14 Jul 09 - 03:43 AM Well if it's the 19th I will do what I can to promote it amongst the SE London folkies! |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: GUEST,romanyman Date: 14 Jul 09 - 03:39 AM the crayford arms will be putting on other days of course, but its a struggle due to lack of support / clashes with oter dates etc, this cannot be helped and obviously is not planned that way, the only thing i can say is its a matter of choice , i will far rather support demelza house in what little way i can and will always be at crayford arms when they arrange a day of dance and folk, sadly the folk scene is always clashing somewhere, i will post the definate date as soon as i can, but it WILL be the 12 th or 19th, no matter what |
Subject: RE: crayford arms 12th or 19th sept From: melodeonboy Date: 13 Jul 09 - 07:43 PM Too much fun! |
