01 Aug 00 - 05:29 AM (#269271) Subject: Yorkshire Gathering From: bill\sables As you probably all know Dick Greenhaus and Susan of DT are coming to England for Whitby. Susan and Dick are the people responsible for the Digital Tradition, (Mudcat's Song database) There will be a gathering of catters at the Jug Inn Chapel Haddlesey near Selby on Thursday 17th August with Susan and Dick as special guests. As this is the thursday before Whitby perhaps other catters from outside Yorkshire would like to drop in as a break in their journey to Whitby. The Jug serves good food and offers free camping in their garden for any catters who would like to stay overnight. It is a real ale pub as well. Please try to get along to thank Dick and Susan for a great database. Cheers Bill |

01 Aug 00 - 08:45 PM (#269893) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Malcolm Douglas I'm hoping to get there, too. The train from Sheffield to Selby looks easy enough; how to get from there to The Jug is so far a mystery. Is there a bus, or is a cab a better idea? It will certainly be necessary to stay the night somewhere or other, as the trains finish quite early. I'll watch this thread... Malcolm |

02 Aug 00 - 06:01 AM (#270154) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Catlin We're in Barnsley near Sheffield.... a train journey and we are there? I'll see if I can get the money. It would be lovely to meet some vaguely local Mudcatters :) *Hugs* Catlin |

02 Aug 00 - 06:07 AM (#270155) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Tig Not another night of enjoying ourselves at Syds? Ah well, one must suffer it. You'll need to catch the 405 to Doncaster from Selby and ask for Chapel Haddesley crossroads. You can see the pub down on the left (coming from Selby). I'll check tonight to see if there are any other bus services. Be warned, they aren't very frequent, especially at night.

A few practicalities to sort out - but we'll try our damndest! Catrin P.S. (Thread drift!) Catlin, with a name similar to mine in every respect but one, does that mean our personalities will be equally similar?). hmmmm, I wonder. The joys of Mudcat. |

04 Aug 00 - 12:59 PM (#271397) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Ringer Look, I'm coming from Chesterfield, and have already said I'll pick up Patrish. To come via Sheffield is no prob - I can offer the other 3 seats in the car (but I'm returning Thursday eve, not staying). Any takers? Probably won't see any replies till Monday (I access from work): first 3 get seats. |

07 Aug 00 - 07:23 PM (#273208) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: bill\sables For anyone who is hoping to get to the Jug here is the directions; Get onto the M62 from wherever you are and take exit A19 Doncaster to Selby (If you are traveling Eastward this is the junction after the A1) At the junction head North to Selby on the A19 after about a mile you come to a roundabout, go straight over still on the A19, you will pass a power station on your right then look out for a bridge with a lot of slow down signs. When you cross this bridge slow down and indicate right, there is a garage and then a right turn . The jug is about 50 yards on your right after the turn. The distance from the M62 to the Jug is about 3 miles. Looking forward to seeing you there. Cheers Bill |

08 Aug 00 - 05:59 AM (#273465) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Ringer Bill: just trying to plan. Does the Jug observe strict licensing laws so that we're likely to be on the road home by about 11.30, or does it take a certain ... er ... relaxed attitude, implying we might be somewhat later? |

08 Aug 00 - 09:25 AM (#273521) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Skipjack K8 I'll come over from Leeds after work and set up base camp in the pub garden. Will someone give me a shout in the morning? Malcolm, if you PM me, I'll revert with my moby number and skirt round by Selby and pick you up. I think Eric the Viking is still pillaging in Holland, but I'm a wundrin how you're going to fit all these bodies in such a small bar, Bill. If you banned melodeon players, perhaps ....... Skipjack |

13 Aug 00 - 05:06 AM (#276745) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: bill\sables Bald Eagle, I can't disclose Syd'd hours on the net but if they were legal I would. It is a small pub but it is very friendly and any instruments are welcome except perhaps a grand piano. If you get there early and need a meal beware of the large mixed grill unless you are the size of Big Mick or Big Phil. but you could always have the leftovers for picnics at Whitby |

14 Aug 00 - 03:24 PM (#277577) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Mrs.Duck Syd-licensing laws-no, I don't remember ever hearing those two things in the same sentence!!!I think I might stay overnight anyway even if we are only a few miles away-afterall a drop of 'Just 4 U won't do us any harm'! See you all on Thursday. Mrs D. |

18 Aug 00 - 02:16 AM (#280084) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: roopoo I got back from the gathering just over 6 hours ago - already the village street is humming to the happy sounds of people driving to work. I hope Skipjack managed to crawl into his tent ok, he's got to be up in less than an hour! I'll be back round there in a couple of hours to pick up the SO's hire car which he parked outside after arriving back to the Jug from central Siberia at 11pm and then downing several pints. If he's still there I'll give him a kick! I'd like to thank Dick and Susan for being such good company and just downright nice people. Bill will be sure to be posting a blow-by-blow account of the evening. He certainly was sticking that camera in a lot of places! It was great to put names to so many faces too. See you tomorrow or thereabouts at Whitby. mouldy |

18 Aug 00 - 03:39 AM (#280099) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Skipjack K8 Aaaaagh, me head!!! Evacuated the tent racked with cramp at 7.11am, Andrea, to a beautiful autumn Yorkshire morning, 12 degrees, a covering of dew, and Eggborough power station gently strumming the other side of the river. Made it into the office shower before 8, so at work in Leeds early for a change. What was in that beer? And how much was there? Reet grand meeting Dick & Susan. Hope to raft up with you again in Whitby next week. Good call, Bill. Skipjack |

Stubborn car, argument with SO.... need I say more. Glad to hear it all went so well for you all. This has made me even more determined to get to the welsh gathering! Catrin |

18 Aug 00 - 01:22 PM (#280314) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering From: Mrs.Duck skipjack I'm surprised you could even walk never mind work. As for how much beer there was let's just say there was significantly less by the end of the night. Great though wasn't it Hope to see lots of you in Whitby-the barbeque is scheduled for Thursday and I will be posting more info in the Tap although actual details will be from one of us for obvious reasons. See you all |
