Right on Mr Fox... have already boycotted the "Chatham Maritime Festival" due to the admission charge. From what I saw this year the pubs that were hosting folk gigs down the High Street worked ok. Pity the Queen Charlotte's not in it, but they are catering for the non-folkies. Every year I say BRING BACK THE SESSION IN THE EAGLE but it seems to have changed into a jukebox. Is Richard suggesting that we use that large village hall type structure behind the Eagle? That just might be far enough away from it. The whole point of the Sweeps Festival is just that. Chatham is famous for ships- not chimney sweeps. To take it out of town would have a detrimental effect on the town's busisnesses - and anyway I had it from Mr Hudson's mouth, and I quote "it's a load of bo******S.... it ain't gonna happen"
