Subject: EPWORTH FOLK CLUB From: Ep' Eric Date: 30 Dec 05 - 10:31 AM Hi, I'm back after my sojourn in Lancashire.What a surprise. My previous thread went to the graveyard in the sky after only one day so I have to start again. Can you work your magic Sooz and put my permathread back on. Ep'th folk will be meeting as usual on Monday 2nd.January for it's usual singaround at the Old School Inn at 8p.m.All welcome. I have slept in 4 different beds over the last few days, Consequently I have got the dreaded lurgy but should be there. Can anyone help me. I am seeking the Darren Gough final of the Come Dancing programme for my nephew who is cricket mad and rather poorly. If anyone has a recording,could I borrow it for a few days because the BBC can't supply one. |

Subject: RE: Epworth Folk Club PermaThread From: Rasener Date: 22 Dec 05 - 02:53 PM Subject: RE: Epworth Folk Club From: Ep' Eric - PM Date: 12 Dec 05 - 08:06 PM Last Monday was an evening of excellence at Ep'th Folk as they gathered for their third meeting of the winter session. And so it should have been with two professional singers in their midst. John Ohagan returned and George from Landlocked was there. We were somewhat depleted with enforced absences by some regulars but that only made it more memorable for the ones who were there, giving the singers a chance to show off the diversity of their repertoires. With only seven performers there, they each had a chance to show off the diversity of their songs with about six each. John Ohagan kept us fascinated with his diction and purity of voice with a nostalgic song he composed with Archie Fisher about the days of their youth, but song of the night for me was his "The Lark in the clear blue Air" this was unforgettable. George gave us some of his country favourites such as "I didn't tell her" "Somedays a diamond". His "Irene Goodnight" soon had the whole room singing. A splendid and varied selection . Chris Smithson was at his best again with his own compositions. His "Conservatory Rag" now a firm favourite at Ep'th Folk. A fine guitarist in many styles and an original composer who can find a song in any situation. The regulars too were in good voice with John Windle singing "Give me back my job again" and a hilarious "Iv'e read about love". Albert Deakin was in good voice with, "Your my best Friend" and " We can Sing". Eric's contribution was "Ae Fond Kiss" by Burns and "Linden Leigh" amongst others Making a late appearance through work we had Andrew Taylor who played "Candle in the Wind" and " Streets of London" Thanks were extended to Travelling Audience and the other listeners.

The tour of the house is really interesting and some of the antiques took my fancy. Quite a family history.

It was my pleasure as an antique restorer to repair many of them a number of years ago. In particular, the chair which was Samuel Wesley's, his father. This was in terrible condition so I took it completely apart and restored it so that visitors could sit in it.I don'tknow if they are allowed to now -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post - Top - Forum Home - Printer Friendly - Translate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: RE: Epworth Folk Club From: Ep' Eric - PM Date: 10 Dec 05 - 02:54 PM Refresh.

Did they tell you the story of the wardrobe which was in Geoffreys room and purported to have belonged to Samuel Wesley?. This was a myth and I proved it to them. I'll tell you the story when next I see you. |

Subject: RE: Epworth Folk Club PermaThread From: Ep' Eric Date: 22 Dec 05 - 12:50 PM Thanks for the encouragement Moorleyman but I still can't do what I want to do. That is, Take two or three old messages from the normal thread and transfer them to the Permathread for editing and then scrub the rest. |
Subject: RE: Epworth Folk Club PermaThread From: Sooz Date: 22 Dec 05 - 12:44 PM Now delete all the garbage and you're away! |

Subject: EPWORTH FOLK CLUB PermaThread From: Ep' Eric Date: 14 Nov 05 - 03:37 PM To get to EP'TH FOLK CLUB: Drive to the traffic lights at Epworth, there you will find the White Bear pub. With the pub car park on your right go down Station Road, away from the town centre for a few hundred yards until you come to a left fork in the road. Take this and you will find the OLD SCHOOL INN on your right a few yards down BATTLE GREEN. That is where we are.
