Subject: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 27 Jul 04 - 02:52 PM Hello, I spoke to El Ted last week , and he had the idea of loads of Hull people going to The Barton Tuesday session, Loads of Barton people been to Hull, like Oaklet and Skipjack, they both went to The Adelphi. And Karen n Colin Tomson , and bloke in the corner, and oaklet and skipjack all been to Hull Folk Club, so we thought its about time a few of us went to there session. I talked to Skipjack about this a few days ago, and he reckons its a good idea. it will be a tuesday, [not sure which one], in the next few weeks. If enough people are intrested we could hire a minibus, so everybody could drink, [all put money to it, it should not be more than a few quid each]. Plenty of taxi places etc do mini bus hires, if anyone knows a good one write it here, and if anyone knows the best date to go, write it here. john |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Les from Hull Date: 27 Jul 04 - 03:28 PM That sound like a good idea. Can we avoid the Tuesday of Whitby Folk Week though? And if we get enough people interested from this side, we could get a mini-bus taxi to cut down bridge fees and allow everyone to drink. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 27 Jul 04 - 03:32 PM As a south banker, I can assure you all of a hearty welcome in the Six Bells, with me, Skippy, the Ayatollah etc. perhaps even persuading Oakley (Let's talk about something else - now, what do you think of me???) to get his fiddle out and fiddle about with it. Though that might frighten the landlady's doberman. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 27 Jul 04 - 03:33 PM Another idea, is all meet up at the Humber Bridge, and swim across the river, to save bridge money, [bridge tax is a big rip off]. take your swimming costumes. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 27 Jul 04 - 03:34 PM I just realised that swimming across the river is a silly idea, as peoples instruments will get wet and go all soggy, and might not sound good. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 27 Jul 04 - 03:41 PM i think the river is full of crap and chemicals as well, [could damage instruments]. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rasener Date: 27 Jul 04 - 04:36 PM That Humber be full of Karen and Colin Thompson's welks, that gave me food poisoning when they bought them to Market Rasen Folk Club :-) |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: ThreeSheds Date: 27 Jul 04 - 06:32 PM Why not use the footpath? |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Georgiansilver Date: 27 Jul 04 - 06:41 PM Assuming you mean Tuesday 3rd...could you give details of venue/time etc as will consider coming to watch! and meet a few more Catters. Travelling Audience may also be interested. Be Blessed. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 28 Jul 04 - 04:48 AM Yes, Mr Silver, next Tuesday from around 8.30 pm. The Six Bells is in Barrow upon Humber. Look on the map for Barton Upon Humber (on the south end of the Humber Bridge) and Barrow is off to the east, about three miles. If coming from Brigg towards Barton the village is signposted at the A15 junction - don't worry, you'll see it when you get there. Go into the village centre, you'll see the Royal Oak pub on your left, turn right there and the Six Bells is 10 (ten) yards along, on a corner. You can't get very lost, it really is a small place. You will, of course, be most welcome as will all travelling folkies every Tuesday night. We are proud that our session is anarchic, no-one leads it, tunes and songs equally allowed - and you might well get to hear Karen & Colin Thompson, Dave Oakley etc- playing for FREE!! My God, what an offer! See you there |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: el ted Date: 28 Jul 04 - 05:01 AM BLOODY BARTON??? Is it still there? I thought the luftwaffe saw it off sixty years ago! Next Tuesday? I'm up for it. I will travel over in my beautiful Fiat Scud. I can slot a few hullites in the back if you fancy it? This bit should be in green |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 28 Jul 04 - 04:35 PM I'll probably come and act as a native tracker, translator and Punkah-Wallah for Georgiansilver and Travelling Audience. I'll barter with the guards at the Lincs/Humberside border to let us in. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Georgiansilver Date: 28 Jul 04 - 04:46 PM Have conversed with Travelling Audience and my mate Stuart..The four of us will attend as Audience. Look forward to seeing some talent and meeting a few more Mudcatters. Best wishes, Mike. |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rasener Date: 29 Jul 04 - 04:52 AM So Sir John, does this mean that the Government has almost completed its plan to ban smoking completely except in Hull. I can see it coming. Do you smoke sir Yes I do Sorry you will have to sell your house and move to Hull When that is done, somebody is going to cut around Hull and float it off into the sea. |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Oaklet Date: 30 Jul 04 - 08:57 AM Hi Richard! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,Richard Date: 30 Jul 04 - 10:41 AM Hello El Ted and Oaklet, I'll be at the Monks Walk - we have to show the Farlingtonians what we're made of. Specky will be delighted if we get through 700 pints on sunday! We can mull over plans on sunday and I'm sure we can find space elsewhere if you have no room left Ted. I do hope I make it on tuesday - I've never seen Oaklet in his natural habitat before. See you sunday. Richard. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: el ted Date: 30 Jul 04 - 10:51 AM Good mad Richard. Have you had a look at the FarTington pictures that Nick posted? There is a great shot of the back of your head! The loading schedule for my Fiat Scud looks like this:- me. Penny. sophia. Mick. jOhn. you. and maybe les and maggie. I have had a couple of PM's from Beverley people, but I suspect the van could be classed as full! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Oaklet Date: 30 Jul 04 - 12:45 PM Whilst you're doing all that in the Six Bells - I'll be befriending the tea-making facilities and chatting-up the trouser press in the Best Western in Darlington. Rats. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Les from Hull Date: 30 Jul 04 - 01:55 PM Well me, if I can be transported. Maggie if she's doing nowt. All to be discussed on Sunday. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 31 Jul 04 - 09:58 AM It looks to be building up to being an excellent session. (Was that grammatically correct?) Anyway, see you guys there Toodlesday. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 01 Aug 04 - 12:18 AM Looks like this could be fun, there's about 10 people going in Teds van [plus Jim the Spider, but he doesn't need much room] but Ted's van only has 2 seats! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: ossonflags Date: 01 Aug 04 - 06:30 AM I will bring the chaise lounge. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Georgiansilver Date: 01 Aug 04 - 08:10 AM So it looks like there won't be seating room at the Club for us poor Gainsborough lot, unless we get there before you...Now there's a thought. Best wishes. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Georgiansilver Date: 01 Aug 04 - 08:13 AM Who actually runs the Barton Club please....someone PM me. Thanks, Best wishes. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Skipjack K8 Date: 01 Aug 04 - 01:56 PM There is no leader, GS. It's a musical collective of the loosest kind, and the only rule is no rules, saving the only Commandment. Anything that happens there is unlikely to make the next re-writing of the History of the English Speaking Peoples, so we're quite relaxed. We usually attract several local members of the light entertainment industry and happily bang along with them in the key of Barton. Bloke thinks he's chief anarchist, so it is worth PMing him for parish notices and the like, although he has sub-contracted the job of laying on commestibles to me for this bash. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 01 Aug 04 - 04:14 PM I hear your commestibles are of the highest order Skipjack, I'm salivating already! :0) |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: el ted Date: 02 Aug 04 - 04:19 AM Yo jOhn, If you want a lift, can you loiter on Chants Ave about 7.32pm(approx) tomorrow. I will cruise up and down collecting people. Monks Walk looked like it was going to develop into a good un yesterday, sorry we had to leave early as usual! PS;make sure you have all BATHED tomorrow, my van is VERY clean inside! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Sttaw Legend Date: 02 Aug 04 - 06:41 AM "I will cruise up and down collecting people" Be careful Ted that habit cost you a fortune last time when you got caught. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Skipjack K8 Date: 02 Aug 04 - 10:15 AM jOhn, I'm surprised at you, being a commestible logistics executive! I have now successfully negotiated a sumptuous buffet with the lovely landlady, Jo, and had to think of a number attending, so I said 'about twenty', so please can appetites be expanded or contracted depending which side of that line we fall attendance wise? I set my hat at taking the new Wurlitzer, complete with electronic sound reproduction equipment, including applause, helicopter noises and that endearing drum roll at the beginning of Eastenders. We'll have hours of fun! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: ossonflags Date: 02 Aug 04 - 10:25 AM John,a chaise lounge is a class of a posh sofa were one lounges very languid. Will there be whelks skippy? |

From: Georgiansilver Date: 02 Aug 04 - 01:12 PM Unfortunately due to having to go to hospital on Wednesday...Travelling Audience can no longer come but Strollin' johnny, myself and Stuart (the non catter) will be there.

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 04 Aug 04 - 03:30 AM Great evening. Good to meet Sir j0hn, Ossonflags, El Ted (wow!), Sweetfia (even wower - nice voice girl!), and many others. Great playing and fantastic music all round. And Willa - a lovely lady and a lovely voice, 'Blackwaterside' and 'Reconciliation' were excellent. And what about the two little lassies playing whistles! My gob has never been so smacked! Such talent - makes me feel like giving it all up and retiring to Eastbourne. Just a small negative - slightly on the smurky side, but what the hell - us non-smurking Linkunsheer puffters wuz warned beforehand, I'm a big lad and I can live wi' it for the sake of the music! Roll on next time! Johnny :0) |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Sweetfia Date: 04 Aug 04 - 07:02 AM Excellent session. Thanks to all the Barton lot for putting up Ullites! We all enjoyed it. And what a fantastic landlady you have there! Nice to meet some 'Catters to - I now have an idea as to who i'm actually talkin to! More singing methinks though next time. Although sone of the tunes played where great, it was good to see so many people joining in. And Skipjack, wow, what an instrument! Lol! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 04 Aug 04 - 07:49 AM Yes Skippy, how did you get the entire Lincoln Cathedral Organ into that small box? (And per-lease, no smut about organs going into boxes!) SJ :0) |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: el ted Date: 05 Aug 04 - 04:24 AM I've tried to post here twice today and it keeps crashing on me, is it me? Is it because I mentioned the high beard count at Barton? Anyway, if this does get through, stand by for a "Hull Smoking Club" thread so that we can discuss where we are going next week in my trusty Fiat Scud. Be Sting. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Skipjack K8 Date: 07 Sep 04 - 09:53 AM It appears that we might have an extraordinary session tonight, if anyone fancies sampling the Six Bells session (in Barrow upon Humber), as the BBC will be in attendance, and hopefully those outlanders from Selby way. Be there, or devise your own version of the space/time continuum. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: KJ Date: 08 Sep 04 - 09:44 AM How did it go then? I was working on the assembly line so couldn't make it. There was some rather tuneful screaming, I thought about asking her if she'd fancy coming to the session! Lungs like a whale's! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: KJ Date: 08 Sep 04 - 09:45 AM PS when is the next visit from the northern lot? We don't want to miss it. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: KJ Date: 08 Sep 04 - 09:49 AM pps. I'm going back to bed now 'cos I really shouldn't be awake but its a beautiful day & everyone is out,strangling their grass & forming lines of autumn bedding plants with military precision, doing strange things to motor vehicles, steam cleaning their camper vans, strimming their bastard hedges ( whatever happened to hedgerows?), talking too loud & generally STOPPING ME FROM SLEEPING AAAAARGGHHHHHHH |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Skipjack K8 Date: 08 Sep 04 - 06:15 PM That was Colin Thompson, that was. It was reely nice9. Whalesong would have added, though. |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: ossonflags Date: 09 Sep 04 - 04:00 AM It would have been helpful if we had been given a little more notice. |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 09 Sep 04 - 01:52 PM Bearing in mind how excellent the previous big Barrow session was, how about another on the Tuesday of half term week, the last Tuesday in October? Maybe the young lassies with the whistles/flutes will be allowed to stay up late? Please post interest here, if enough I know Jo the landlady will prepare another gastronomic welcome as last time. And it was SUCH fun! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Willa Date: 09 Sep 04 - 05:41 PM Excellent idea, bloke. I'll tell Liz that she and the girls have been invited! |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 11 Sep 04 - 08:26 AM This Tuesday? Me, of course. All others most welcome, the half term session should be great, but of course all players/singers etc will receive hearty willkommen, bienvenue, welcome... ahlen, was ahlen, gokigen i genki des'ka... (not quite sure about transliterating the Japanese).. whenever they come. Told you I was a polyglot. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 06 Oct 04 - 05:40 PM A little advance warning here, the BIG half term session in the Six Bells, Barrow on Humber, will be in just under three weeks time, on Tuesday 26th October 2004. That's half term, so the young folks who came last time won't need to get up for school in the morning. Make arrangements, book the evening in your diary, last time it was a real stormer, let's do it again on the 26th. I'll tell Jo, the landlady, and she'll provide tasty morsels. And in case you haven't been before, it's in Barrow on Humber, about 4 miles east of the Humber Bridge south side. The beer is good, and I think everyone last time agreed the welcome was very friendly!. Look forward to seeing you all there, and of course at our regular Tuesday sessions, if you fancy coming. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,KJ Date: 06 Oct 04 - 11:51 PM We'll be there this time! |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 19 Oct 04 - 02:29 PM Well, it looks like being another good one! Come one, come all, we'll be kicking off around 8.30pm. I'll be there tonight and will remind the landlady about nibblish things. Looking forward very much to it. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Gaucho Date: 20 Oct 04 - 07:48 AM Listen guys, Thanks for the welcome last night. Really enjoyed myself. I'm still high after the tunes and songs. They've put a real spring in my step. Sorry I can't join you next Tuesday but I've majored on Gainsboro Festival and Lincoln Folk Club already this week and need to do my bit at home with the "young uns". Sounds as though it's going to be quite something. Have a great time and I'll try to get up again pre crimble. Cheers G |

Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Paco Rabanne Date: 20 Oct 04 - 07:52 AM .....resist. 100! I thank you. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 20 Oct 04 - 03:57 PM Ted, this hundredth post lark is not good for your soul. You're a mature, intelligent member of the human race, I don't like to see you scrabbling round in this unseemly fashion. Besides, I missed it completely.... Coming over on Toozday? |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Cod Fiddler Date: 25 Oct 04 - 05:32 AM ITS TOMORROW! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,KJ Date: 25 Oct 04 - 06:23 AM Yipeee, so who's coming them, metaphorically speaking that is! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,KJ Date: 25 Oct 04 - 09:57 AM Shall we make that 'who's coming then', pre-senile dementia setting in! |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 25 Oct 04 - 03:21 PM Well, you wouldn't expect me to miss another like last time, now would you? It seems about three of the Hull youngsters are coming, so their music will be another plus point. Just think, some folks hardly ever experience live music of the quality we'll be having tomorrow night, and fewer still will ever have been part of it. Gives you a warm feeling deep in the cockles of your heart... or should that be whelks? |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Strollin' Johnny Date: 25 Oct 04 - 03:28 PM Sorry, can't make it - rehearsing with a band of geriatric Rock 'n' Rollers re-formed for a one-off charity gig. Older but no wiser! :0) Ah well, better get me drape and brothel-creepers dusted off. SJ :0) |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rasener Date: 25 Oct 04 - 04:05 PM Have you got your "Ducks Arse" wig to go with the outfit John LOL :-) |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Rasener Date: 27 Oct 04 - 01:44 AM Many thanks to those that bought the Yellowbellies Cd at Barrow on Humber tonight. Nice set up there. I was very impressed to see the youingsters playing away there. Good on yer Barrow:-) Sorry I had to leave a bit early, but I have a new job and need to be alert tommorrow. Job must come first. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 27 Oct 04 - 03:07 PM Great time, great playing, great young musicians, and the music we love to play being passed on to the next generation. Not to mention you old buggers did really well!! I'm looking forward to the next one already. Now, how about the Tuesday before Christmas as the next one? That's 21 December or thereabouts. I'll obviously post a bit nearer the time, but that will give us plenty of time to wind up for it. Of course, you're all welcome at every Tuesday session at the Six Bells, except next Tuesday, when we're all going to see his holiness Lord Philip of Cunningham and Sir Aly of Bain in Brigg... |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Willa Date: 28 Oct 04 - 09:32 AM Thanks for the warm welcome, and particularly to Jo for the food. It was so good to see the girls treated as the serious musicians that they are. How about 6-year old Lydia making her debut! Keep an eye (ear) open for those Wainwright girls and their friends and hope they do carry on the tradition.I'll keep their mum Liz informed about the possibility of a visit in December. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Thumper Date: 28 Oct 04 - 10:58 AM Yes, it was an excellent night. And looking forward to seeing aly Bain. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Cod Fiddler Date: 29 Oct 04 - 07:41 AM I had a very good time and look forward to my next visit. I'll see you all at Ali B and Phil C. By the way did any of you find a fiddle mute, which I think I left on a table. It is a ten-pronged affair made of black rubber with the words "ULTRA USA" on it. I think that Oaklet and El Ted get their ten-pronged black rubber affairs at Gwenap but they are a bit different in design and less efficient for silencing an accompanying fiddle that isn't sure what note is coming next. If any of you have it, could you bring it to Ali B? Best wishes, Richard. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Skipjack K8 Date: 29 Oct 04 - 08:04 AM Hmm, there was someone hard of speaking making surprising little noise about being eaten by a dangerous dog after you left, but I don't think that person belonged to you Richard. Sorry not to be able to help any further. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Oaklet Date: 29 Oct 04 - 08:06 AM Watching Fluffy the landlady's rottweiller passing the ten-pronged rubber mute on Thursday afternoon was particularly distressing for all concerned. It is now a malodourous three-pronged number. Sorry Rich. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,Geoff Date: 31 Oct 04 - 03:50 PM Hi,Oaklet,Bloke&co-Is there no session at all on Tues?Are there any other join in ones in the Lincs/Notts area on Mon or Tues?Thanks Geoff. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: Bloke in the Corner Date: 01 Nov 04 - 03:46 PM Normally there is a session every Tuesday, Geoff, and very welcome you would be to come. The only thing is, this Tuesday (2nd November) the regulars are mostly going to see Aly Bain and Phil Cunningham in Brigg, so probably there won't be anyone there. But do come to the regular Tuesday session, we have all sorts - oakie, skippies, ploughflyies, blokies...all sorts. |
Subject: RE: Big Session In Barton [Lincs UK]? From: GUEST,KJ Date: 01 Nov 04 - 09:18 PM Just booked the 21st & 22nd (to recover!) off. |
