Otley Folk Club slight problem

On Wed 16th June there will be a cycle race (!) in the town centre in the evening. This will mean some access roads will be blocked for a couple of crucial hours. The club is right in the middle of it all - Korks Wine Bar - but DO persevere - a short walk will be required, that's all.
Guest is Australia's Margaret Walters - fine singer - great songs.
Well worth a tiny bit of extra effort! See you there.

Margaret will have Duncan McFarlane accompanying her (on guitar & cittern) for her set - if you get past the cycles alright!

Saw Margaret at Maidenhead last Thursday (10th), absolutely wonderful and well worth a bit of trouble to get to see her! Enjoy.

Hovering Bob beat me to it ! I also saw Margaret on Thursday and also
reckon it is well worth dodging the cyclists to get to see her

Duncan's pretty good too, but then the locals know that....

Hey Kitty,
I told Marg W that, at Chippenham, you said you'd likely get to see her at Maidenhead (eek, that's a funny-sounding sentence!).
She's since told me that you weren't there.
Did I get it wrong? Anyway . . .
We play Otley tonight together - then Alcester & Arden fest this Fri/Sat/Sun. Oxford and Nottinghan clubs the following weekend.
Perhaps we'll see you at one (any/all) of those.
Rehearsals have gone well since we hooked up last Sunday (though she DOES beat me up!
Worse still, makes me play in some strange unfamiliar tuning I can't handle - I think it's called 'standard'!!!

Saw & heard 'em last night, lovely stuff, well worth going to see & if the cyclists get in the way, knock 'em off their bikes. What mad buggers go cycling when there's a decent folk club in the area!!
