OOh and i wanted to add that Barbara and Tom, your sessions in the Sailing Club are what make the week for me...I loved going down and just listening - and Richard is right, great beers, great company that puts those (less fantastic at singing than yourselves) at ease to have a go themselves, great loos (so important during a folk festival when antibacterial hand gel becomes your best friend), and most of all GREAT voices.
And i'm proud to say my younger sister thinks its pretty good too, and she is a teenager and they hate EVERYTHING, so that is praise indeed.

I just wish it could go on longer, as Richard says. Has anyone thought of printing this blog, putting an explanatory letter on it, and sending it round to the Public Houses of Broady to see what reaction we get and whether they feel this would be reason enough to make their pub a venue for singing/sessioning and merriment?
