Thread Name: Whittlesey Straw Bear sessions
Subject: RE: Whittlesey Straw Bear sessions
Thanks for the tips. It's been three years since I last attended, and then only on the Saturday, so am aware how sessions fluctuate between pubs. Sing-song in The Boat one year; Irish musicians, the next - you can never tell. The Newcastle students took over the New Crown the last time I came. Wasn't there something happening at the pub near the railway station at one time?
Is The George open this year? Someone told me it was being taken over by Wetherspoons, after being boarded up for some time.

Unfortunately, I am stymied by the last bus back to Peterborough on Friday, otherwise would have loved to see Pete Coe in concert!
