Despite the big freeze, we are (fairly) confident that a bold few of us will make it to the Salford Folk Music workshop tonight - 7.45 for 8pm start in Room 824, Maxwell building, Salford University.
We've checked with Security, and the building will be open.
Martin Dunn, the session leader, is hopeful of getting through.
We always get a good session from Martin, so if anyone is bold enough to brave the weather & join us, that would be great.

BTW - Does anyone retire to Crescent after the session? Could be an added bonus:-)

It was a great evening although very few attended due to weather and other accidents.
Next one is 5 February & will be led by Tom Ryan our banjo player.
Thanks for fixing the link, guys.

You won't need guidance to the Crescent, Les....but you'll need guidance home - the beer's tremendous!

Sorry, I meant in the crescent - not the workshop, I'm sure there are some sprightly whippersnappers there!!

The Crescent is full of students during term time, Charlie! Average age of about 20 I would say, generaly. How long is it since you have been in?

Cheers

(Who would add a few to that average age when he goes in)

Looking forward to the Salford Folk Music workshop on Friday 5th feb - 7.45 for 8pm start in Room 824, Maxwell building, Salford University. This month the leader is Tom Ryan with banjo.
We're always happy to welcome new people, and we know there will be some new faces this Friday.

re the Crescent, our regular members don't frequent it because we're mostly coming by car from some way away, but that's no reason others shouldn't try it before or after the workshop. It's a nice pub with good beer; I don't know if it'd be full of students on a Friday night - although it's near the teaching parts of the Uni, it's not very close to any of the residences. Staff tend to gather there on a Friday after work, but that's earlier.
