We got back home last night tired and happy. It was another great festival with something for all tastes and persuasions. We've already booked next years tickets (we don't do camping so we'll find another hotel!!). Thanks to Stu for the guitar workshops and for the posture tips. We saw you Mr Barden of the Garden but we passed by too quickly I think so I'm sorry - hope to see you at the Solent Festival. Was good to see some youngsters at the Bodhran workshop Sun with Fred Rose - I had to leave before the end because I had been booked in for a reflexology session at Heaven Sent in the Craft Fair - WOW!

Eric Bogle and John Munro were fabulous, Mrs Ackroyd Band (Plus canine vocals) struck the right notes and of course Tanglefoot. Sorry to all those others who were equally superb. There is a great deal of local talent up there as well - and it shows. Thanks to all the committee and to Alan Bell for the brilliant and warm festival - see you all next year.

Love and Peace

Ann & Richard
