Hi KJ, Ned & I and the two little ones went down two years ago, but although we bought a programme and saw saw brilliantly colourful dance displays and pipers etc...we never found a single session. Any ideas where the best ones are, in case we can get there this year? also there were only about three camper vans in the campsite, which was lovely. It might have been the threat of 'October' weather, but in fact it was sunny all weekend...you never can tell.

Re Cornwall fest. Sorry we didn't get to see you...I saw your picture and I went up to this guy who I was sure was you. I said, Oh Hello, are you Kernow John and he said what?

D'you know, in the real world I don't think people use 'handles' i stammered on for a bit before we sorted it out. perhaps he thought I said colonel John or even kernel John. He must have thought I was a nut. Anyway, that's cured me of speaking to strange men.

Hi Deni
First and foremost how did the support gig go (need I ask you were brilliant of course!)?
At Lowender the sessions seem to take place upstairs in the hotel bar and happen on an ad hoc basis. Last time the Saturday night one went on and on. When we went to the bar in the hotel at 11 next morning there was just one lonely Cornish guy in kilt on a chair in the middle of the floor away with the faries but looking like he was the last at a bloody good party!
Regards KJ
