Not sure about that, Les. I thought I had had Jamesons there but could be wrong. I'll check next time I'm there.

I've just realised that if £5 is too much for a barbequed head, kids will be much cheaper. Mind you, I'm not sure that I can eat a full one!

What I actually wanted, though, was some confirmation that Syd might have an Irish Whiskey in. I seem to remember that he doesn't usually, although, of course, I could be wrong. So many pubs, so many pubs...

Syd's told Sue that he will take all the brew but even though he's used to Mudcats he was being very dubious about the fact we could get through 5 barrels. The Badger did some sums and worked out it was only about 18 pints each for the weekend.

Don't forget to bring some sort of a container as a 'carry out' so you can take some to the ceilidh!

Yes Micca, you certainly do!
Geordie - he put the gate in the fence, a useful location, I think! The answer to ALL Noreen's other questions was YES!

Your fingers have been drinking, Mrs Duck.... :0)

Where did Syd move the gate to, and why? Do we want it? Is it to pen micca in when he's had too much cider? Or to make Eric feel at home? :0)

Syd even moved then gate just for us isn't that kind!! Better drink an extra pint or two of his beer to compensate for his effortsw.

Yummie. Barbequed heads £5 each. What are we doing with the rest of the meat?

But I'm not going on the top of the cake. I might be versatile but I'm not decorative.

I find a cooked breakfast essential to sop up all the alcohol from the night before so we can start again.....deep joy!!

Subject: RE: YORKSHIRE GATHERING II
From: Mrs.Duck
Date: 01 May 01 - 06:19 PM

Sounds pretty good to me we could always put Les on top as the decoration!
BTW I have let Val know that people are generally interested in the idea of cooked breakfasts but haven't actually given her names and numbers but there will be plenty for any that want. Other meals will also be available and we still plan to have a barbeque on Saturday evening which Val and Syd are organising so no need to bring anything for that. It will be about £5 per head to include all meat salads bread etc. (less for kids but haven't got final figures worked out with Val yet) If the weather should prove unkind there will be a marquee so we can keep dry!

That's not true about your cooking, Ickle! Any way I'd make a great raffle prize. I'm very versatile!

And chocolate madeira sponge fruit cake sounds great to me, Sue!

I am sure we shall partake of the breakfasts as john seeks every opportunity to avoid my cooking. John has also suggested we raffle Les , but I thought I'd bring a bottle as an alternative.

Sorry, I'd have loved to have come down for it, but I'm busy that weekend:-(

If things go to plan I should be in Ripon the following weekend dancing the Morris. Anyone around that area that weekend look out for a man in blue knee breeches, red stockings, white shirt and a bowler hat!

HI Mrs Duck, I've signed up yet again on the site, I keep losing my page for some reason. Yes as you say photographer to the poor and famous. Just in case I lose my sign up again email [e-mail]. Well we're back from Ireland and raring to enter the festival fray, so whats this yorkshire gathering all about then. PS I still smile at the thought of the "Abbey Road" photo, wouldn't mind a copy for my collection

Although, we are still not sure if we will make it, as Manitas has gigs that weekend..... boo hoo.

Can probably squeeze in another van OK. There has been a suggestion of the Jug doing cooked breakfasts (at a time to suit!) at £2.50 for the works. As this is not their usual fayre could people let me know if they might be interested (Not binding) so Val can shop for bacon eggs etc.
Thanks Jane

We've told a couple of friends about the weekend - they said camping with a load of folkies sounds like really good fun, when we added it was in a pub they begged for details, so can you add another couple of people to the numbers please! Would there be a problem if they wanted to bring a caravan? - if there is, they could bring tents instead. Sue
