12 Aug 02 - 05:08 AM (#763724) Subject: Catters In Hertfordshire From: CharlieA Hello, I haven't been very vocal on the 'cat recently as my email access has been sporadic to say the least but hopefully I will be around a bit more. The real reason for this ramble (and yes I'm rambling alot!) is that i will shortly (end of this week) be moving to Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire and was wondering who else was in the area. I know some peeps in the area as my other half (who I'm moving in with) grew up in the area so has loads of mates there but I was wondering if anyone here was form there. I'll hopefully be attending some folk sessions (got them in another thread) so see you there. Charlie |

12 Aug 02 - 07:57 AM (#763756) Subject: RE: Catters In Hertfordshire From: Hamish I'm so far out to the West I do most of my singing in Bucks (Berkhamsted and Chesham respectively). Tudor Folk Club and a couple of singarounds detailed on my site . But loads of good stuff around the area. You need to check out the Hitchin club if you like big names. Also see My Gurur Always Said's thread about Baldock. I expect McGrath'll br along soon to tell you about his site which has loads of links in your (new) area. Welcome! |
12 Aug 02 - 10:01 AM (#763797) Subject: RE: Catters In Hertfordshire From: Keith A of Hertford Breezy runs a club in St Albans that I keep meaning to visit but still haven't. PM him if he doesn't post, he may be away. The Bell at Benington has a great session on (usually) the third Tuesday of each month. We have a session every Monday at the White Horse in Hertford which can be very good, but this is holiday month. I wont be around until Sept. Hope to see you sometime, Keith. |

13 Aug 02 - 07:44 AM (#764314) Subject: RE: Catters In Hertfordshire From: McGrath of Harlow As Hamish presciently said, here I am, and here's a link to a page on my site which has a fair amount of stuff about local folk music happening on both sides of the Essex Herts line. (Not as well kept-up-to-date as it should be I'm afraid.) |
