A truly wonderful occasion, Hil. And it must become a regular feature of Banbury (and other festivals too perhaps)

Sorry that I too seem to have missed the rollcall bit near the end of the afternoon. Was that when we poor Shellbacks were shanghaied away to t'Mill? There were quite a few Catters there that I'd never met before.

As a singer I'm not complaining, but there were very few instruments in evidence, even as accompaniment. Were there no instrumentalist Catters at Banbury this weekend, or did you feel uncomfortable with so many singers around?
