23 Apr 10 - 10:08 AM (#2892749) Subject: Bude (Cornwall) Folk Festival, May 2010 From: Hamish Only five weeks until the most wonderful 4th Bude & Stratton Folk Festival: 28-31 May 2010. In a beautiful setting, with lots of marvellous people, it's got to be one of the friendliest festivals ever. With an unbeatable combination of singarounds and concerts, plus a ceilidh and workshops (including [ahem!] a ukulele thrash on Saturday early afternoon) ...and my personal highlight, the Sunday lunchtime shanty sing. Programme to be published shortly, but a sneak preview suggests Les Sullivan, James Findlay, Barrie & Ingrid Temple, Andrew McKay & Carole Etherton, Suntrap, Ned & Dame Patti ...and a Mudgather on Monday. Be there! You'll thank me for the hint: Bude & Stratton Folk Festival 2010 |

Didn't know the Mudgather is set for the Monday, we'll be travelling back fairly early. Any idea what time it's set for?? Ginger wine workshop anyone?? |

17 May 10 - 04:39 AM (#2908406) Subject: RE: Bude (Cornwall) Folk Festival, May 2010 From: Cats Hope to drop in sometime over the weekend but I have Jon's cousins from Canada staying with me as well as his cousins from Dorset and his late uncle's partner fron London as well so won't be staying overnight [Can't fit us all in my little camper van]. They want to see a bit of tradition while they are here so thought we might try Hunting of the Earl Of Rhone on Monday afternoon and evening and Wolf's Head and Vixen should scare them silly!!!! |
