I would like to suggest a Special Award for the Singers and Musicians at the Wellie in Boscastle. This would have been more appropriate last year but we didn't have an awards so lets go for it this year. After the flood in 2004 when Boscastle was devastated and the ground floor of the Wellie totally washed away, they decided that nothing was going to stop them singing there on a Wednesday night. Nothing did. Every week, without exception, they gathered at the Wellie amongst the rubble and mud, by the fires made from the pieces of wood from the flood, inside or out regardless of the weather ~ and sometimes that was horrendous rain and hail, or bitterly cold ~ and sang. Perhaps only for half an hour but they sang, making sure that the sessions would continue. The Wellie is fully open now and has been for about a year [hence last years award] and Boscastle is slowly recovering. The sessions never stopped. I do think that they deserve a mention for fortitude.
