Just starting to catch up with stuff at home since bringing Max down South from Whitby on Thursday, so apologies for the delay.

What a wonderful festival Moira is, thanks so much to Lynne, Ted, Dave and all the team who provided us with such a wonderful weekend. Last year was just fabulous, but this year even more so, despite the rain! Our apologies for any late-night disturbances fron our parties in the caravan, perhaps 'quiet' areas should be introduced in the site?

Many thanks to Moira for giving me the chance to sing again, I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and it gave me a chance to build on my experience of performing. And I think that's part of what makes Moira so very special, friends singing and playing to and with each other. Hearing Alie & Steve and Chris King is a rare opportunity to be cherished and there were other wonderful performers there too, too many to mention!

Having a headline artist or two can only be good for the festival and will attract more ticket sales, but as many have already mentioned here, please don't push the festival to grow too big! It would take away that 'magic' feeling and I certainly appreciated the fact that we weren't all packed like sardines in the campsite. I'm so glad that the Committee are seriously looking for feedback and I'm sure that they will take note of our concerns!!

Thanks to all who attended the MudGather, who made, brought and ate chocolate, shared songs and tunes and made it such a good Gather!! I must admit, I didn't realise that anyone had been turned away at the door and wish that hadn't happened. MudGathers aren't normally stewarded at other festivals, we usually take care of ourselves. Anyway, here's the Register:
