New site is Thame Showground nearer to habitation in Thame, hence current format. Ceilidhs (and one Cajun set on Fri late - Mamou anyone?) are sumarised at Mr Red's dance page for Thame And there will be impromptu dances (with music) on grass Thurs and Monday night if Steve Harris has anything to do with it. Tell us more Steve............... |

25 Aug 15 - 09:40 AM (#3733083) Subject: RE: Towersey Festival Aug 27 - 31 From: Mr Red Bah! Weather! According to the BBC/Met Office Thursday onwards should be much brighter. |
25 Aug 15 - 10:35 AM (#3733100) Subject: RE: Towersey Festival Aug 27 - 31 From: Hamish Woo! Looking forward to another fun and frolic-packed few days. Pity the Thursday has had to be sacrificed to the new site, but in many ways it should be an improvement. And not forgetting my ukulele workshops: every day at noon; plus BURP are playing on the Parasol stage on Friday afternoon. But I will fit in a fair few ceilidh moments, too! All good. |

If you didn't and are a guitarist, you will be amazed and dis-heartened at the same time. And he is young enough to make you weep! |
