I have do not know the reason why the Moor and Coast do not use the tent at there own festival I did not say that I did I only speculated that it could be a facture. I'm not against the Moor and Coast food tent. Far from it! And I would prefer to sleep further from it.

But you can't spice and the half penny. If you decided to expand the campsite to enable a quite area away from the Moor and Coast tent to keep it a family festival. The economics of attracting more people to the festival would mean booking the Civic. Booking the Civic and guests who would attract more people who would be needed to fill the Civic and the Picturedrome. Then the campsite is just not big enough so you move it to the next village and put on a bus and a Beer Tent. No more short walks into Holmfirth but a 24/7 Mini Bus service with volunteers to drive it all through the night. Now because some of the pubs are still open till 2am or later!

Is this starting to look familiar? What is it that you do want? It's your festival?
Soldier Boy you were full of praise for me when I pointed out the problems of moving the festival out of the football season. Commonsense and compromise and giving as much support as possible to the festival is needed.

If you want to get votes promise every thing Free Buses, 24 hour catering, Hot and cold running water for each tent, how about dial a drink service delivering beer to the Moor and Coast session tent. (Which to my knowledge did not attract any singers and musicians at the last two festivals in Holmfirth. Strangely enough they were all in the beer tent.) Oh Sh... now he will want a beer tent.

If you want yet another great festival listen to suggestions and points of view from people who have been to your festival. Then support whatever decisions have to be made to keep the festival alive.

I have not contradicted myself in my last five messages I do not live in or come from Holmfirth I have just been pleased to be welcomed along to it. The running of the Holmfirth festival should be by the local people of Holmfirth. Arguing both sides to stimulate debate is not a contradiction of anything. The reaction to it from you just tells me that you don't like the argument against a food tent because it is a problem Old Boy. On reading the confusion that you are helping to create its nor surprising that someone turned up at Holmfirth this year when he should have been at the Moor and Coast Festival in Whitby that fall on the May Bank Holiday Weekend. The Holmfirth Festival has usual followed that Bank Holiday Weekend.

Could we please stop speculating the ins and outs of the Greenfield Festival Knocking other Festivals and Organizers is just not the thing to do. Personal I hope that there venture is a success.
