Ralphie - most of the comments have been very positive about Faversham. Its really nice that publicans and members of the committee have taken time to make comments/ answer suggestions on how the festival might be run / improved next year despite the disparaging title the thread was given.

If Mr Bridge chooses not to attend the C and A or the Bear session that is his choice - not the fault of the festival. I did not hear of anyone else who had problems. Me - I'm in the middle of negotiating a private booking for next September and I'm trying hard to encourage the theatre group not to pick the first week in September. Were missing Deal and Tenterdon this year because of bookings - which is a shame as we have been going most years since both festivals started and have enjoyed whatever programme the organising committees have put on.
