Subject: RE: Child-friendly folk in/near Manchester
I had a Child ready to go the other night for the Beech singaround birthday bash - True Thomas, which I've never yet sung out anywhere. Maybe next Wednesday (although thanks to Christmas we've got a clash with Ryburn, which may draw away some of the real traddies). It was more of a chorus-ish sort of night, so I did Jones's Ale & the Holly and the Ivy - Jones's Ale being particularly appropriate to the night, as I've never heard it anywhere else but at the Beech.

I believe Child-friendly designated folk venues are there for the making; it just takes a few shoulders at the wheel.
