Mary & I are going to be in Cornwall from just after Boxing day till January 2.

Is there anything going on in the local folk music scene there? Sessions, clubs, maybe a public New Year ceilidh?

Pity that you're not going to be there a little earlier, just along the coast from Penzance is Mousehole and on 23rd of December they celebrate "Tom Bawcock's Eve" see this thread.

You can find the song about it here.
