Does have anyone have any ideas of times or venues - the only details I can find refer to 'a very informal weekend'. Is it centred round the pub/pubs or what?

Nice excuse to come for a paddle at some point over the weekend. From experience I usually manage to turn up to these things precisely at the moment when everything is about to stop. Any info would help.

If its the same as normal it is totally pub based except a few street thingies they usually put an outline programme on the Robin Hoods Bay Folk destival website ( cant do blue clickies but a google search should bring it up)
I usually go but sadly not this year

Bay Folk

There's usually a singaround and a session in the Dolphin and dance teams down at the bottom of the hill. There's a contact number on the above clickie. Don't look like we'll be there either, sadly.

Eye will be their and the will be much jollity and sing and playing of the instruments.
For the uninitiated let me just say that once you are there! You will not want to leave! To the initiated! Volunteers wanted to push the piano back up the hill!

George, lets hope our little friend from Leeds with the accordian and the big gob gives it a miss this year, it would seem a shame to pollute the lovely bay by hoicking him over the sea wall

Just tip some cider into the accordian Nick, then wrap it with your cling film. case solved!

You're not going to let me forget being jostled by a itinerant musician of dubious manners who caused me to spill cider twice are you,

and I'm getting concerned about this cling film fixation of yours, does Penny know

Penny loves the rustle of clingfilm along a dusky thigh.... oh.... sorry.... wrong thread... Anyway, clingfilm is much more fun in bed than an accordian!

hey Raggtash,

Did the accordian with the big gob also have VERY thick glasses?

Now there's an interesting concept an accordian with a big gob suppose it had a big arse as well

Yes Sarah he did, don't know about a big arse but he was a pain in the same area

There are two public campsites within staggering distance!

Staggering distance once you've achieved the top of the bank!, the nearest is a tad basic the next, Middlewood Farm is a very nice site, good showers etc and can be reached through the woods, torch essential after dark

It's today. Be there or be square. Penny is currently packing the clingfilm, and we have given the servants the weekend off.

Bubble wrap???? Are you kinky or something? oh, I forgot you aren't coming are you Sttaw because you are going to see some old pop group called "Yes" I thought they were all dead!
