Have to agree with Ralphie that it's not an out and out folk festival, but there was plenty of singing around.

The Phoenix had Bob running a session on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. I missed Saturday, but Sunday was a good session, very nicely handled by Bob and friends, and everone who wanted to sing got plenty of chances. (too many perhaps for those listening to me).

Likewise on Saturday night the Phoenix was going well into the early hours, although I was at the Crown and Anchor from early evening until just after midnight.

I thought it was a pretty good session. No-one was particularly running it and people did a pretty good job of taking their turn as it went round the room.

Sorry that Richard didn't feel welcome and I was a stranger to just about everyone there and I loved it.

Regards
