Great stuff.
I've passed on your problem with the web site link to our computer boffin.
The Nook will be having sessions + the usual Free (or 3 depending on where you come from) Sandwiches.
There will be a Folk Club in the Old Bridge function room on Friday night and we thought that would be enough space for singers as people will still be arriving. Currently Singarounds are likely to be in Hervey's on Saturday afternoon and the Old Bridge Bar on Saturday after 9pm after the food is finished.
That's all we have pencilled in for now so please feel free to make your suggestions.
For the moment Hervey's is a likely spot for more singarounds. We are told by the landlord that the Elephant doesn't want anything programming in but we have been advised that they said that last year but welcomed those that went so enquiries will be made there.
We hope to use the upstairs room at the White Hart but I have still to go and talk to the new landlady. We want it for a performance of Jake Thackray songs on Saturday night and probably Silverwheel on Saturday afternoon. Whether we want to use it for informal singarounds I don't know?
The Postcard will have a band on Friday night and Saturday night but I am advised that it is not a good place for singarounds as it is smokey.
So that's where we are at the moment but please remember that some of this is still in the formative stages.
