No, keep this one going Paul.

It seems that word about this festival is spreading like wild-fire.
It was on the lips of many of my folkie friends at Saddleworth FF recently and also at Durham last weekend and it sounds like many at Hardraw were suggesting it to friends.

So like a rolling stone gathering moss, word is getting out and it's picking up momentum. So don't dally people.

Get on the "Cropton Folk and Roots Festival 2009" web site and book yer tickets.

Only £26 for the whole weekend,including concerts,camping and booking fee.
Now that's what I call really good value for money!

Just to remind ya. It's on 7-9 August 2009 (only 1 week and 3 days away). It is set in the beautiful grounds and pub of The Cropton Brewery (smashing range of real ales and food),a few miles west of Pickering,North Yorkshire.

There is a very good line up of artists (check website for full details)and the large rambling brewery pub will be pulsating with excellent singarounds and musician playarounds.

This is a new Festival and from what I know about the number and sheer quality of people who have said they are going to it, it's going to be a little cracker which I am really looking forward to.

Just one question from people in the know. Is the pub hosting this festival called 'The Cropton Brewery' or does it have another name?
I called at the pub a few years ago on me way back from Whitby Moor & Cost Festival and thought it was called ''The Cropton Arms' or something. So can someone please clarify so we all know what to look out for. Many thanks.

Get yer tickets booked and I'll see ya there folkie friends.
