This is an interesting case of thread creep. The thread started by Aeola mentioning he had heard a rumour "I hear the RAFA club is organising a folk club, with support from some Bothy members." and ended up as a geography lesson.
I asked around at The Bothy last night & got a few blank expressions until I spoke to Pete Rimmer & he said that Kevin Bargan, who is in a group called the Travelling People (who had a club in Formby 30yrs ago) was thinking of starting a club & Pete offered to pop down & do a spot if required.
