Subject: RE: Ozcatters @ 2018 National Folk Festival?
been home a few hours, washing done & dried, fridge very low (a few very sorry veggies, which will go to compost) but we stopped for morning tea & I bought a yummy salad & a delicious pie for dinner.

I just downloaded my photos - 422 of 'em, many are duplicates. I like taking lotsa' pics of bones players & dancers to be sure of getting some that show the action!

I took a sore-ish throat with me which ended up in laryngitis on Friday so several folks suggested I try manuka honey - in fact the bloke selling it said I would be singing again in 2 days & I was! Tho my voice did go in & out all over the weekend, depending on how much I spoke & sang.

Weather was good, I didn't need most of my warm clothes & my Rent-a-tent was close to the festival, tho when my feet were sore, I looked longingly at the mobility scooters trundling about. One of my friends after a lifetime of mobility problems finally hired a scooter & left his wife in his wake! Strange the number of folkies using walkers & scooters these days ...

Bruce, you missed a great hymn session, singers were well lubricated by chocolate eggs & Dr. J.
