quote from above -'Were any current Mudcatters,apart from me,there and what memories does anyone have,good bad or indifferent? '' Well I was there - I've been to EVERY Bromyard Festival - and been booked there every year for 34 years now ! Memories - myself and the late lamented Vic Baker (Professor Wingnut) ran the wondeful Music Hall nights for many years. I've also called for some great ceilidhs there too - lots of good sessions in the town - in the early days singing all night around the bonfire on the Bonfire Site - running a project in a local school teaching border morris - and then appearing with them in the Square - first time any women/girls had danced morris in the square! (Different now I'm happy to say)- Lots of great times working with the children - one year there were just two of us and 115 kids - and no stewards to help!!! And this year we'll be there as usual - Pirate theme on Sat. Animals on Sunday - send your children along to make things and have a sing. Always been one of my favourite festivals Dave Hunt - Dr. Sunshine - Sunshine Arts
