Add..
Vicky Swan & Jonny Dyer
and of course Jon and Kath

and a myriad more when I get my memory back from a busy festival season.
The website died due to not being notified by the host that it was due for re-newal. Toby has to start reconfiguring it all over again. Bear with us it will be a couple of days.
Love to all thanks for your support,

Andy

righty, the site will be operational again in the next few days
ive been stupidly busy recently with 2 jobs, flu and enroling for university. but ive sorted out new hosting with dad (andy) and im just waiting for the domain name (www.miskinfolk.co.uk) to get transfered to the new location. once thats done i'll put the site back online and hopefully all shall once again be groovy.
watch this space... or check miskinfolk.co.uk once in a while
on a strange note, i temporarily placed a reduced copy of the website onto my university webspace (doing computer science has benefits) you can get there by going to:
this linky here

its not been updated in a while because dad cant access my account so hes not been able to update it, but its a basic start.
we dont have a proper 2005 site yet, but im going to try and get that designed and written (making it dynamic and clever see) by the end of october depending on work from university.

Hope all this satisfies your quench for miskiny type materials.
as i said, the site will be back up and runnin within the week if all goes well.

Lynne, you are incredibly....no, perhaps I'd better not! Tell you what though - know what you mean! There's that son of yours, for one - not even a twinkle in his father's eye when we used to go to the SDADCS!

Anyway, Ms Lemon and I expect to be there, unless I'm looking after/burying one or both aged parents or off on the briny somewhere! Looking forward to it already (Miskin, that is!) In the meantime, have a good winter, everyone!

What about you, Yas? Remember - I was all growed up and married when my daddy all but adopted you when you were a little girl. I'm still proud to call you my special, little, 'almost' sister. I suppose that makes ME ancient, but remember you're as old as you feel - personally, I'm looking for a toy boy to feel so I feel young!

Can't promise we'll be at Miskin - I got to this year's, didn't get out of the camper, and ended up having to take five months off work!

Yourabsolutely right Polly Squeezebox,your dad was very special. I to also thing you as my "Big Sister",that means your Tobys "Auntie"poor thing.lol.
I never realised you were so ill until Andy told me a wee while ago,i hope your on the mend now.I was in hospital for 5 weeks the other month.I am on an even keel again thank goodness.Its great to hear from you,you take care now and i will see you somewhere i am sure.Are you doing Banbury?,as i am.
Your looking for a toyboy well i got one and its no different except they have more energy!!!!!!.

Yas, that depends on the person, not the age!!!

And if you are as old as you feel, I'm about 32. (Not as young as most people think they'd like to be, but at 32 I knew enough to enjoy it all more!)

Miskin is a special one for me. Andy has done a brill job for years .I dont think it should be promoted on the cat. Word of Mouth is all that is needed for this uniqe event. Catters welcome of course :>)

You are so right - Andy has done a superb job because his heart is in it. isn't that why he was awarded the trophy last year? Well deserved too.

Do you think Richard and others that Miskin Festival runs just because you come along,i believe it needs to be known to keep the festival going and if Miskin Man who is Andy wants to advertise the festival plus his son Toby then let it.

Miskin Mam did not start this thread. I stand by what I said. I hope Andy keeps this Thread in the picture nearer the time.If he feels tis right. His choice. Not mine.

At the risk of being shot down in flames - I have to agree with Richard. I LOVE Miskin, it's one of the highlights of the year for me, but it does get very crowded in the sings. I'm not sure if there is enough room for any more people.

Hurrah,
sorted out the site, weve got the basic site up and running on new and propa servers now :) im just setting up a forum at time of writing too so hopefully we can get a wee community going or summin.
some people might not be able to access the site for a day or two yet, its all to do with "propagation of DNS entries" which basically means, not all the ISP knows that our site exist and they say "waaa? what site you want? Nah, sorry mate, wont have the parts for a few weeks and it'll cost extra to install" or maybe "site cant be found" on the more sensible browsers.... anyway, i digress...
We Have Site! hurrah again
sorry about the ramble, its just ive been workin on this for 3 days now and it was getting a bit frustrating.
miskinfolk.co.uk
and the forum might/will be at miskinfolk.co.uk/forum but not JUST yet :)
p.s. im not advertising the festival, im just stopping people from emailing us about the site being broken :) althou a bit of advertising is good sometimes too

GUEST,MBS. This festival doesnt work because I go. It works because its a wonderful small event,that I would like to stay as it is. Im selfish, too many festivals get bigger and loose atmosphere, and those "Tingly Song moments" that Andy loves dont happen.

Looks like I dropped out of the system again!! Ne'er mind!
Heard a rumour at Banbury that I was having trouble booking the Mill...Ah?? not so.. But I have now realised that someone must have overheard me saying I was having trouble with "The Site" i.e. the Web site, not the same thing!!
The Mill is booked and ready and even the website is nearly up and running again. A first taste of guests and soon more to follow.
See you there?
Oh, and it mustn't be too big a secret or one day no-one will turn up!!

Richard:

Listing it here (not really advertising) is unlikely to do it any harm.
A quick search on previous threads will show you that this is the fourth successive Miskin which has been heralded in this manner.
So something must be going right!

Anyone who's ever been to Miskin makes it a part of their year & I certainly wouldn't miss it for the world!! It's a wonderful thriving festival (with all those tingly moments) but none of us want it to get toooooo big *smile*

Methinks Richard is worried in case it's a real struggle to get to the bar through the crowd.....
