Just follow the red crosses.

You will either find yourself at the festival or being bandaged at a similated disaster exercise for the Red Cross - at a re-run of the crusades, complete with re-incarnated King Richard the Lion Heart, or at a BNP rally.

Anyone know which of the Gerry O'Connors is playing ? Tipperary [ mainly banjo ], or Dundalk [ fiddle ] . ?

That reminds me. The route to Wimborne has been painstakingly marked out with white flags carrying a red cross. These markers will be found by the side of all roads into the camp site.
A big Thank You to the organisers !!!

Any musicians definitely willing to be part of the 'scratch band'?

The answer to that and the condition of any that will be willing to join in, may rather depend on the outcome of another of that day's events which kicks off in Germany at 2pm...............

I'll be there, but 'in and out' all day since I'm dancing with Exmoor. Glad to hear there is a Friday night sing after all. Will the room at the Conservative Club be available all day - like it was last year - for people to carry on singing after the lunch time sessions?

Herbaceous Border will be dancing in the Square at 5pm on Saturday. Anyone who wants to dance or play will be very welcome. Just turn up - even if you've never danced border morris before.

Anyone going?

I expect to be there for the singarounds with Derek Burgess in the Conservative Club on Saturday (12-3, 8-11) and Sunday (12-3). The Con Club isn't available for singing on Friday evening, so the 8.30-11 sing will be in the Crown and Anchor at Walford Mill.
