You'll all have to cope without me I'm afraid. Lancaster tempted me first.

Enjoy Miskin y'all and I'll see many of you in the White Lion (or horse, or some white animal anyway) at Upton.

well, the forecast looks pretty good so far...see you all there mid-afternoon-ish, dependant on how easy it is to get lost.

For those who like 'rounds' (and I'm not referring to beer), the local version of "Campfire's burning" which I have heard frequently at Miskin since I first camped there in the 1950s:

Come to Miskin; Come to Miskin:
For a wetting, For a wetting:
Rain, Rain; Rain, Rain;
And still more to follow (or 'and still more tomorrow')

That's a shame EG :-( but you'll have a whale of a time at the Yorkshire Gathering I think, and I'll be missing that one!

Well folks, not sure if it's the lure of the harmony snoring in the indoor camping or the selection of drinks & nibbles but am going to be joining you all at Miskin - I can't wait *grin*

Hubby's coming too but will probably be off doing his own thing most of the time so hopefully he won't get too 'folked-out' & will be able to enjoy the evenings with us at least :-)

Looking forward to meeting old, young & new friends!!!

I suspect crackers to Miskin will be somewhat like coals to Newcastle *G*

We are hoping to get to Miskin but a lot will depend on being able to drag Mick out to buy a camper before then. I didn't fare too well on the diabetic front at Crediton as far as meals were concerned. I don't think I could manage 4 days of it.

Oh Morticia - if it's the floor I don't know if I can do Miskin - my poor old back complained a lot despite the very lovely airbed provided by Jude at Crediton.

Blast! And I do so want to meet / hear you too!!! If I can't work this one out I'm sure we'll bump into each other somewhere else :-) Glad you're getting to Miskin though!!!!

Andy tells me there are no bunks left so I guess it's the floor, on a trusty air mattress ( which isn't very trusty as it happens...might be time for a new one)....but at least there isn't so far to fall :) Do come,Hil, I'm dying to meet you!

Beds? Really? well that puts a whole different perspective on the matter (much better for the poorly back) - maybe I ought to broach the subject with the other half? He could come too & go treasure hunting when he gets folked-out :-) When do people go & come back?

Brenda and I will be there, since we're going to stay with friends in the area on the thursday, attending the Newport FC that evening(With Bill McKinnon), and then on to the Festival for the weekend. Can't wait!!!!!
It's the first festival of the season for us, cos we couldn't make Crediton this year so we're looking forward to meeting old friends, and making some new ones.

It's almost that time of year again. So who else is going to this little festival . Lots of fun, good beer, good company and Andy Jackson's own inimitable brand of mayhem!
