Oh, I hope you do come, Kat -- and you too, MMario! That would be so fine.

I'm setting up the program again this year and would love to hear as early as possible from people who think they MAY be coming. You don't have to know for sure, at this stage. And if you will let me know what your main interests are, I'll try to work them into the program.

If you were there last year, let me know which workshops or concerts worked particularly well for you! I try to have variety from year to year, but there are favorite topics that we always try to include.

ps Mario, I heard you singing the "Mingulay Boat Song" -- was it tonight? Liked it (and your singing!) very well, started singing along, and later this evening I sang it at the Royal Mile Pub's shanty sing. Thanks for the reminder of a great song.
