I'm sure there will be!

I've lost count of the number of times I've been told how folkies can make a 1/2 glass of orange juice last all afternoon.

What these people don't see, or won't see is that vast amount of barrels that are sold during folk week.

Speak to any licensee and you will be told folk week is the busiest week of the year, with next to no trouble from the folkie punters.

I was talking recently to the landlord of the station. He told me last year they got through over 300 firkins (9 Gallons) of Beer.

what these people don't see or won't see is the almost complete lack of police during folk week, they are not needed by and large.

What these people don't see or won't see is that every Guest House, B and B and holiday cottage is booked, every food outlet working at near capacity.

Yeah us folkies don't spend any money at all.
