Apologies to Mr Drane & friends re my misunderstanding.

Another superb festival weakend, one of the most friendly & community inclusive of the season's events.

Many thanks to Liz & the gang for organising it all.

Had a most pleasant leisurely ramble along the toepath Sat afternoon, viewing the excellent craft fair, complete with a couple of super hoofers doing street pantomime - a bit like Punch & Judy but with live actors instead of puppets.

Also the gaily decorated narrowboats resplendent with floral & horticultural displays - the floating garden boats - brill!

The weather was fairly kind with a mixture of 'scorchio' & thin winds [coats on - coats off!]

Completed our stroll with a walk up to the Newton Brewery pub canalside with a good range of real ales & a nice sheltered outdoor patio area where we had a good ol' singsong sesh, complete with appreciative audience of joe public + a crowd of jovial morris team & band - Maaaaaarvellous!

Fri, Sat evening several great & diverse sesshes in Bore's Head, plus a nice gentle jazz performance from Brendan Fahy, ably accompanied by Will McGuigan guitar, & Craig the super gob iron player.
