"Marque Fiasco"
My self and two others set about putting the Marquee up on Wednesday but was dissuaded from doing so by a folk mob commitee member
" on the basis that we should wait until " Mick Forde" arrived on the Knockholt field?

I myself have never heard such cobblers in all me life but not wishing to have a confrontation about using our initiatives we went back and sat by the fire.
When I spoke to Mick Forde he was has bewildered has we were''

I have asked the folkmob committee through Pauline too sort out this nonsense at their next meeting

We could have had that Marquee up and forgotten about on the Wednesday.
We dont want credit fore it we just wanted to get the bloody thing up so we woulod not be called to do so later.
Has of course we all were?

There are a lot of people on the knockholt field who will tell you themselves they are unable to help with the ERRECTION....of the marquee.
Which is fair enough?
But if there are 3 folk who are able to put the Marque up fore Christs Sakes let them go ahead and get on with it?.
Ok
This year The Marque came down very quickly due to a grand show of helping hands
Not much use of the Marque was made this year which I though was strange due to the changeable weather we were having.
Indeed having a new front to the Marque would have made excellent shelter for the very cold Saturday night?
If we had crammed in there body heat would have warmed it up .
