Aaarrrr that's alright then - but haven't heard anything about it from the usual Eltham crowd - I hope to be there early Weds and probably leave Saturday morning.

I was under the impression, Mick, that it was not being advertised, but had gone back to being word of mouth.

Linda and I should be there. Do remember that my 60th (well 59.975) Birthday BBQ will be two weeks earlier than this weekend on Sun 6th June, but by Knockholt I will actually be an sexagenarian - eligible for a bus pass. 0n the weekend in between we plan to be at the Moreton Village Festival (near Ongar, Essex) - a great little weekend.

I will be quite happy to bring the small PA (only 30w per channel) and a couple of radio mikes again for the nightime sessions - I think that it worked well last time (the autumn session). I know that one of the organisers was against the idea - what's the general opinion ?   Even I find it a hard push singing without a mike out in the open, and many singers are likely to be virtually inaudible without a small amount of amplification.

Watch it, or I'll tell Beryl (whoops she wants to be called Emily now) what you said. And it's not true that her hip operation the other year was so that she could get her legs further apart.

Hello I'm here!

Roll on next June for the next one!

I enjoyed the food at the Tally Ho pub - better than the usual fried stuff on a calor gas stove that always sticks to the pan!

Wasn't that old bag Beryl a pain - don't know why she bothers coming to our events all she does is whinge "The fire's too hot" "The fire's too cold" "My name's Emily" "give me a cigarette" "I'm superior to you low life scum"

Dave Kenningham was great - He was singing his poor heart out to the blonde haired young lady - bless him!

Well, where are the rest of you?

Well Friday night was very pleasant, and DK delighted us all. One moody and garrulous lady got told off by all of us. DB arrived briefly to open the beer (Hurrah!) which was different but good and as deadly as ever. Even the shaky eggs were good, and there were no banjos.

The combination of red wine, lager, DB's magic potion, and neat ouzo did little for my affability (or guts!!) in the morning however, nor indeed my enthusiasm for running a PA rig tonight!!

I suppose the rest of you are still enjoying it (just). Roll on next June.

Well the Lord moves in mysterious ways.

It now is definite(ish) I won't need to be in Nottingham Thursday night, and very likely I won't need to be in Nottingham Friday night, although I may need to be running a big sound rig in Gravesend Saturday Night.

So I might see that beer again before I die!

I have racked, blended, and repressurised the beer left over from the BBQ - there's about 3/4 barrel - it tastes good. Have decided to rename it:

                  "Knockers"


Will probably bring it up with the caravan on Thursday - it shouldn't need to settle as it's now "bright".

And I think the beer from the barbie was better than the June one, and better than the last Knockholt, and alas I have to be in Nottingham (probably) or attending my mother-in-law's royal command birthday lunch!

Stella!
As in "Sans Taste European Lackluster Liquid Alliance"?
Dont let DB hear ya talking dirty.............
I loved the Old Spikey but had to water it down with lemonade before I fell over.
Moby Slick (the Great White Snail) made it all the way back home, where it is causing panic among the neighbours. They think Travellers have moved in, and are locking up their valuables, pets, children, etc. I might take it to work and put it through the bus-wash in order to give it some air of respectability before it forays out to Broadstairs.

Certainly tasted okay to me - or was it the tequila and punch that added that little bit extra.
Certainly went quick enough - had to beg a tin of Stella from Sean's mate!

Well Dave, was there someting else in it?? I don't think it very likely.. I think Dave is a purist when it comes to his beer.
Maybe the strength was a little under estimated. Certainly not tampered with, I hope I misread your meaning Richard, I have often been accused of paranoia, so it's probably just me :,)

Date: 27 Jun 03 - 07:25 PM

There do seem to have been a few heads on the Sunday (!), but for my taste the Knockout was too sticky at the front and too spicey on the finish - nice-ish but not as good as the Old Spiney. And I am very suspicious that either the strength was undermarked or there was something else in it....

Technology phew!
What I meant to say was:

Thanks Dave for the invite thank goodness it will be on the 14th September - I will be pleased to accept. October would be interesting though. What about another one in December?
Will two barrels be enough.
How come the Knockholt Knockolt went so quick - Was it a record???
especially mixed with the whatever was in the punch and the tequila slammers - who remembers Saturday night???

Missed the last one after being 'Folked' out, but do intend to show up at the next one, unless I'm gadding off 'sur le continent' on one of my cheap jollies. The last one looked a hoot!

Err Dave, which year would that be? 14th October is a Tuesday in 2003 :0)

Whereas 14th September is a Sunday, clashing with Bromyard (when I am otherwise occupied).

Have fun whenever it is.
