Subject: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 17 Aug 04 - 04:13 PM I'm looking forward to hosting a Gather for Catters at the Banbury Festival on Saturday lunchtime (9/10) in The Reindeer. Hopefully this will involve a fair amount of meeting & drinking, but will probably descend into a Singaround / Session (possibly borrowing the Middle Bar Twig Rules) at some suitable point. Not sure what time we'll start off yet (this is only in teh vague planning stage), but it'd be great if Catters & Friends could drop in & help to create a CatParty. Ah.... Party games (now there's a thought), how about Charades of Song / Tune Titles (hopefully not too obscure)? Any ideas??? Anyone gonna turn up then??? I just know we've got loads of Catters performing at the Festival itself - El Greko, Cloudstreet, Cllr, Phot, Splott Man, Alanww & a large percentage of the Shellbacks to name but a few. Here's the Banbury Festival Website Hope to see / hear you there!!!! |

See you at Banbury Col |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Moonunit Date: 17 Aug 04 - 06:09 PM Two NewCatters to the MudCafe - duellingbouzoukis and meself Moonunit, will also be playing at Banbury under the guise of Isambarde (we'll be joined by one poor Non-Cat). It is Isambarde policy to make every possible session and/or party that we can (booking/sound check commitments permitting ho hum)... We know fellow Catpeoples Kitchen Piper and Cloudstreet (and potentially many more whose Cat identities are as clear to us as Mud)... Anyhoo, I look forward to seeing you all there and putting faces to all the Catnames! In the meantime you can find us here: Cheers Jude-unit x |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 17 Aug 04 - 06:36 PM Welcome & soon to be well met Moonunit, duellingbouzoukis & one poor non-Cat. Glad you'll be able to gather with us (pending schedule)! Col Dear: Are these Shellback or Stewarding duties???? This is dreadful - however, gather time isn't written in stone as far as I know, maybe we won't clash after all! Excellent news Morty & PoD, front & centre reserved! This gather will be built upon firm foundations with experienced socialites & debutantes! *grin* Leadfingers: What a busy diary you have, we'll miss your medieval reparteeeeeee! Will claim hugs on the flip side. Scoobydoo: Hope you can make it Yas! Will be good to see you there. BTW: For those not 'in the know' - the Festival itself is run by Catters 'Merek'n'Dary', we hope they might be able to get away from their duties & share a glass with us at the Gather. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: MoorleyMan Date: 18 Aug 04 - 07:07 AM Hi Guru, I too am planning to be there (if i can sort accomm). Would love to join in the MudGather, but like ColK subject to own duties - haven't been able to find out these yet tho' and the Banbury website still has "programme being developed" on the pages so if DerekAndMary are reading this....? Really looking forward to Banbury again - a grand festival, great fun, great acts, great atmosphere. And El Greko too this year I hear -unmissable! |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 18 Aug 04 - 04:39 PM Fiddler, Wuzzle, Mairi & MoorleyMan: Excellent! Will be good to see you all at the gather (schedules permitting). Merek'n'Dary will be reading this thread when they get back on-line & I know that all arrangements are progressing well for the festival. Shouldn't be long before it's all tied up now they've got a bit of breathing space!!! Looking forward to hearing El Greko again too!! Good luck with Accommodation / Moorings.... Not sure at this point if Tig & The Badger are coming, but any Catters coming to the Gather can let me know if they'd like a MudCat Badge & I'll get them ordered up :-) |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Tig Date: 18 Aug 04 - 06:09 PM As long as Magician and Gillie manage to get back from Maderia on time this visit and there are not TOO many alarms etc we hope to make it this year. If posssible let us have names for badges as soon as possible - if you definitely want one you can always send a 50p and a SAE to 7 Quarry Road, Norton, Doncaster DN6 9HS and we can send you one before hand although we are running the Watering Hole for the last week in September so not then! |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Herga Kitty Date: 18 Aug 04 - 07:25 PM Unlikely to make whole weekend, but will try to get there on Saturday. Kitty |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Col K Date: 18 Aug 04 - 07:42 PM Could be Shellback duties or could be Artist Liason duties or both, but I will try to get there sometime to meet all the catters. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Mrs.Duck Date: 19 Aug 04 - 02:34 PM Geoff and I will be there although like others I may be off Shellbacking for some of it which means Geoff will be looking after kids unless there is something for them to do elsewhere - she says hopefully :0) |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 19 Aug 04 - 04:26 PM Tig & The Badger (hopefully), 8_pints, (complete with pipes) & SuevG, EmmaB, John Routledge (with more pipes), SussexCarole & Crane Driver, Herga Kitty, Lizabee (with dented badge), Mrs Duck, Geoff the Duck & Little Ducklings & all. Wonderful!!!! This has all the makings of an excellent Gather *grin*, am looking forward to meeting all arrivals. Am also keeping fingers crossed that Shellback & Duty Schedules will not get in our way too much. As far as I know, this Gather is officially in the Program so I'm hoping that allowances will be made..... |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Splott Man Date: 20 Aug 04 - 03:47 AM Pat & I will be there, of course, but I think we're either doing our spoons thing, or hosting a sesh Saturday lunchtime/afternoon. Looking forward to seeing you all there, however. We're hoping to bring Scooby Doo with us. I've got a new, smaller car, so I'm not sure if we can even get ourselves in yet (we do tend to bring a lot to festivals), Whitby will be a tryout. Gosh I'm excited, and it's only August! (do you think this thread will top the 100?) Splott man |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: George Papavgeris Date: 20 Aug 04 - 04:56 AM Guru, I am duty bound from 12:30 till 13:45 (Studio 2), but expect to see me in the Reindeer around 14:15. Will that be too late? Can you give precise timings for the Gather? |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Moses Date: 20 Aug 04 - 07:01 AM Guru, Hope to be at this one. Missed a couple of festivals as Honey (dog) still poorly. Looking forward to the Gather. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Geoff the Duck Date: 20 Aug 04 - 10:07 AM Fiddler - can't you just park in the lock? It's a VERY short walk from the main venue and would provide us all with hours of harmless amusement watching the irate boatees stacked at either side ;O) Quack! GtD. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 21 Aug 04 - 06:24 PM Still no real idea of timing for the Gather I'm afraid, but it would be Real Nice if it didn't clash with either the Big Sing hosted by Cllr & Phot, or a Session hosted by Splott Man, or a thing by Pat (Spoons), or a Performance by El Greko himself. I guess it'll depend on what Merek'n'Dary can arrange with the Reindeer for us! Will post definitive answers here as soon as they're set & just hope that Catters can make it along to the Meet if only for a short... *grin* (Mine's a Pint) Will be good to hear you again Mrs Lemon! Hope you can make it Moses, hugs to Honey :-) |
|
Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Scooby Doo Date: 22 Aug 04 - 03:10 PM I booked my ticket,so i hope Splott man and Pat(spoons)can take me now.I am looking forward to meeting some more mudcatters. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: JudeL Date: 23 Aug 04 - 10:45 AM Soupdragon & I will also be there co-ordinating the first aid team. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 24 Aug 04 - 08:24 AM News! News! The program is still in the process of being 'Tweaked', which is why the web-pages don't have it yet - it should be completely updated by 31st August! Lucky for me as I've been able to negotiate the Gather into a more 'Catter-friendly' arrangement which will be in the Program as follows: Gather starts at on Saturday 9th October at 2pm in the front bar of the Reindeer. Intend to move into the Globe Room (at the back) when various Morris peoples have finished their lunch (2.30, 3ish). We can continue just Gathering & evolve into a Sing / Session.... Those who've been in the Globe Room will recall that it's a Brill room for a Sing, but it is a passageway to the kitchen, so staff will be wandering through from time to time. If Catters (& stray Festivalites) want to carry on then we could pass the 'Host Baton' over to another responsible Cat to keep the Sing going if needs be until the Room is taken over officially at 7pm (which I think is another Sing!) Hopefully starting at 2pm will give Cats the chance to go to the various Sings & Concerts (especially El Greko's) & still be able to join in the Gather! I hope you'll approve of this arrangement!! Glad you can make it Snuffy, JudeL & Soupdragon!!! Hope your arrangements work out OK ScoobyDoo, would be good if you can make it. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Dave4Guild Date: 24 Aug 04 - 03:04 PM I'll be there with Brenda, although I've got a workshop at 6pm. Just have to stay sober!!! Should be great. |

Be great to see / hear you both there! Request 'Where Ra..... etc' Mr Red: Enjoy the Cajun, we'll miss your presence! |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 26 Aug 04 - 06:21 PM Hey John Routledge - you gonna make it too? Would be good to hear / see you again! Phot: Couldn't have you & Cllr miss the Gather could I? Didn't want to miss your Sing either *grin* Have had a couple of enquiries about Accomodation locally (unable to camp) - any suggestions? Any locals got a spare room? The other thing is..... has there been a Mudcat Gather in the UK before this one that's actually been Officially Programmed? Or are we the first????? |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Peg Date: 28 Aug 04 - 12:00 PM gosh that sounds fun. I love Banbury. Weather permitting you should all go to the Rollrights which is fairly nearby--I have spent a couple of evenings there playing music around a campfire (built in regulation firedishes and as part of sponsored events, but...) There is also a good pub up the road. It's a magical, inspiring stone circle. |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: John MacKenzie Date: 28 Aug 04 - 03:48 PM Well the 9th is my birthday, so although I won't make it all the way from Scotland, I expect a toast from the assembled Catters. I'm on holiday for 2 weeks, starting Wed next, and then again from 4th Nov for 2 weeks, with a music weekend on the Black Isle in October, so my chances of making Banbury are v remote. Enjoy yourselves Catters; I will be at Loughstock though! Giok |

Be welcome..... John 'Giok' MacKenzie: Sounds like we'll just miss you down South but will raise a glass to your Birthday!!! See you at Portaferry for pancakes *grin* Splott Man: First round?

Shouldn't have to wait too long as they should be dancing through the afternoon (hope they let their dinner go down first). John Routledge: Looking forward to the benefit of your sophistication training, will put you down as workshop leader for tips *smile* |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: alanww Date: 27 Sep 04 - 07:44 PM Picking up on John Routledge's comment, "Is there anyone left for the Festival?", I hope a few people will be left to make it to the Big Sing in the Long Room between 12noon and 2.45pm on Saturday 9 Oct, which Phot, Cllr, John Morris, The Laners & I will be leading! Come and sing some BIG SONGS! You can always check in on the MudGather a bit later... "Come fill up your glasses and let us be merry!" Alan |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: Snuffy Date: 28 Sep 04 - 08:47 AM Well I'll be running the singaround in the Oak Room from 7pm. If folks have the stamina there's a chance that the MudGather could just seamlessly blend into that. |

Ms Lemon, does this mean that Schantieman will be at the gather? I must admit I hadn't popped his name on the roll-call..... News, News Only 70 weekend tickets left, hope you're all sorted!!!! |

Am sure there will be 'warming sessions' available with kindly Folks to save anyone freezing! MoB: Welcome!!! Hope you can make it to the Gather, it'll be good to see / hear you!! muppitz, I for one am still keeping my fingers crossed that things will be resolved re indoor catering. Let us know where the housewarming is & maybe we can charter jet transport to join the party. But we'll miss you at the gather, catch you on the flip side.... Aha, Dave Bryant & the lovely Linda & possibly Rosie - excellent news!! You sure you're not bringing Avril? Well, still haven't sussed Col K's other 2 names I missed from the list - any clues anyone? Off-line for a few days over the weekend for a PC Healthcheck - wish me luck..... |

Subject: RE: MudGather Banbury Fest UK 9th Oct 2004 From: My guru always said Date: 05 Oct 04 - 03:31 PM Just been in touch with the Reindeer & all is well for Saturday. The Globe Room might be cleared away by 2pm, so if we're not obvious (Badges, T Shirts, Silly Welcoming Grins) in the bar, try round back! The landlord is happy for 'children' even 'children who are also MudCatters' to be in the Globe Room, but not in the Bar areas. Knowing Catters I'm sure that the 'children' will probably be better-behaved than some of the 'adults', but we're welcoming 'adults' too *grin* |
