Sorry to miss you GS.

We had a great time, although were a bit disappointed that we were unable to make spend much time with Mudcatters due to the smoky atmosphere in that particular part of the pub, which was supposed to be non smoking. Unfortunately, as a result, Kendall spent all night wheezing and coughing and is still unwell this morning. He has also been told by his doctor to avoid smoky places since his cancer operation and worries, if he is subjected to smoke, that it is going to affect the healing process. Most people were kind enough to move out of the area to light up, but there will always be a few.....

The upside was that we spent the evening in the area where the children were gathered and it was a joy to see these children enjoying and joining in with the traditional music.

The directions supplied by Skip and Oaklet were superb - we didn't get lost once!

I'm still hoping to make Gainsborough on Friday evening, so might see some of you there.
