I've been to festivals - at a festival you can stand in the audience and hardly talk to anyone. I've been to pubs where a session broke out and you may talk to one or two people but are not necessarily part of the crowd (especially as a non-player/singer).

And I went to Llanstock.

Micca said it entirely, that we were all instant mates. I really felt that I knew everyone, that I could talk to anyone at all. And Jon said it too, the parting hugs and kisses, the memories are of the people. I'd only met one the group before (Bill) and I find it amazing how this Mudcat bond works.

Oh and the music. These people are so talented, so enthusiastic. I don't think you could have stage-managed an event more pleasurable, more diverse - full of little pearls of natural music.

I'm overwhelmed really. And I have digital video footage including, wait for it Bron ............ you doing Tarriers which is NOT ON the official video!!

And I promise I won't say how much I enjoyed the nights, curled up in Bron's duvet.

Thanks to all for everything.

Cheers, Terry
