Yea G'Day. North Island or Mainland?

1) Cecil Sharp House Probably with u/Ground assistance. (think Camden Town & walk)
Tango Etnia, Sunday 27 August, 6:00pm, Argentinean School of Tango & Folklore. (probably for dancers)

28 Aug 7:30pm, The Prometheus Trust, The Examined Life: Philosophy as the love of wisdom

2) not much listed on Folk London

3) Craic it lists a few Irish sessions (no datestamp so who knows how recent the info), only one not on your days but it is the summer season - so best to check if going too far.

Mr red yes, but I'll miss this years folk festival on Labour weekend at Brookfields, sadly I can't afford to fly home just for one weekend!
Wellyfest has its own website now if you want a gander at who's on this year
Wellington folk club details are on 'Acoustic roots' page
