Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: GUEST,muppett Date: 10 Jun 13 - 11:00 AM Wayne, Re. your comments, Kathie (one of the organisers) and me are calling in at the New Inn tonight to thank the landlord and staff and yes there was talk of a regular session setting up there, so watch this space. As for another one next year, well ............. A local farmer has mentioned about use of his land for a festival Campsite over a weekend and both the New Inn and the Thornhill are up for it so again watch this space. Cheers Muppett |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: GUEST,Wayne Date: 10 Jun 13 - 05:29 AM Shame I couldn't have stayed longer but it was already fairly buzzing when I left! Any chance of round two happening next year? There was a rumour of a regular monthly session starting in the New Inn. Anybody got any details? Wayne |

Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: GUEST,muppett Date: 26 Apr 13 - 04:47 AM Bleedin miles apart, nay lad wot you on about, the New Inn is one venue we're using, t'other one is the Thornhill Arms which is 2 to 3 mins walk max. along the Rd. Then the Cricket club is another venue being used is in the park which is opposite the New Inn and the Conservative club is at the t'other side of the park and again 2 to 3 mins walk from the New inn. I suppose if you are an Olympic middle distance standard runner then you can cover a fair distance in 2 to 3 minutes, but for us mere mortals 2 to 3 minutes walk doesn't cover many yards !!!!!!!!! Calverley doesn't just consist of the Main Rd that connects Shipley and Leeds, when you next go through, get out of your car and see. Cheers Muppett :D) |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: cujimmy Date: 26 Apr 13 - 04:28 AM ill let people at the Owl, and the Abbey know Muppet, should get a good contingent from there going over as Calverley isnt far. |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: Dave Hanson Date: 25 Apr 13 - 09:10 AM I went through Calverley today, only saw 3 pubs, bleedin miles apart. Dave H |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: GUEST,muppett Date: 25 Apr 13 - 04:37 AM Good point Betsy I'll mention it to the other organisers, however all the venues are very close to each other, within a few hundred yards or so. |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: GUEST,Joe G Date: 24 Apr 13 - 05:53 PM Looking forward to seeing the Lisbon tram trundling the streets of Calverley! |
Subject: RE: 1st Calverley (West Yorks) Folk Day From: Betsy Date: 24 Apr 13 - 03:47 PM Hi Muppet, Best of Luck with your event. May I make this small comment - I think it would be an idea to allocate one of the venues to be concentrating on just Musician Sessions. It just saves musicians carting their gear from one venue to another looking for a sesh and where perhaps only one or two musicians are in each venue - waiting or looking for each other. A Focal point if you like. Then they also know which venue to park near. What d'ya think ?. It was just an idea. Success Betsy |
