Just a couple of points

The Village Pump Folk Club will be running events at The Lamb Inn in Trowbridge on what would have been the Festival weekend but it is not the Trowbridge Village Pump Festival which is run by a separate organisation.

There will be several concerts held in 'The Pump' building - max capacity 100 - which will be ticketed individually. The £5 tickets are to concerts, open mic, etc. in the pub's skittle alley and garden.

Details and a booking form are on our web-site www.villagepump.org.uk

the most important thing is to let people know there is something happening. With the website they can make-up there own mind.

Best of luck with it - I might try to make it - since I last was there in 1976.
I think - married years are just a blur now - thankfully. Alex Campbell & Brenda Wootton & Melanie Harold I do remember.
