Thanks Sue, I hadn't thought of that, I'll take a look!

I'm not surprised that there won't be any Blues at Whitby Jack, but there will be plenty of opportunties for Max during the rest of his trip! As far as I know he'll have opportunities at:

Orpington Friday Folk on Friday 27th August

Ash Folk Festival on Saturday 28th August

Llantrisant Folk Club on Wednesday 1st September

Lewes Saturday Folk Club on Saturday 4th September (probably with Leadfingers)

Not to mention the Mudgather's at Steve & Anne's in South Wales on Tuesday 31st August and the session at the Black Lion, Plaistow on Thursday 2nd September.

And he'll have the loan of some very fine guitars, coutesty of Splott Man, The Barden of England and Don(Wysiwyg)T
