Yes I remember posting an enquiry about Keswick back in February, but no takers, and in the end the whole week proved entirely fruitless. No music of any description anywhere, one or two pubs/hotel bar areas were closed for refurb admittedly, but no sign nor sound of music of any ilk let alone folk sessions - and only blank looks from pub staff when I asked. Pubs themselves were either packed out with diners etc or virtually empty, even a quiz night in one was blaring to three men and a dog. I normally like Keswick as a place, but this time even I found it depressing. Shame, as there are some venues that look as though they would be folk-friendly... Hope you have better luck, Les - I almost feel inclined to come up there and give you moral support!!!
