Had a very busy time at Chippenham but the schedule allowed me to see some of the Friday night concert including first on Keith Kendrick, Ashley Hutchins' Morris On Show (I get a mention on the Great Grandson of Morris On CD for assistance with Derbyshire Morris), and then Brass Monkey - shame their trumpeter Howard Jones is not well.

Paul Bridgewater at Bridge Violins lent me his nice red double bass for a couple of workshops on Monday morning and then sent his interested customers to see us.

Signed my name on the Mudcat visitors list at Ms Lemmon's emporium.

Got to see some displays, notably Jennifer Hill the clog dancer and Sister Act on the arena. Good stuff.

Lastly called into the ceilidhs later on, mostly for a drink, too knackerd for anything else.

Didn't get to any sessions, perhaps next time.
