I will be running the sessions at 'The Gordon Hotel' at Rochester Sweeps this year. All will be welcome - it's the place that holds the beer festival in the High Street (very close to the Cathedral). Running Saturday Lunchtime and evening, Sunday Lunchtime - with a stint from The Hartley Singers from about 12:30pm to 2:30pm, Sunday evening and Monday Lunchtime. It promises to be fun.

Verses for "Martin said to his man" in honour of Martin Harris and pals...(all trad out of Farningham)

Saw Martin drive at speed, fie man fie,
Saw Martin drive at speed, who's the fool now?
Saw Martin drive at speed, laughed until I nearly weed

Saw Hartley Morris dance,fie man fie,
Saw Hartley Morris dance, who's the fool now?
Saw Hartley Morris dance: bunch of zombies in a trance

John, according to my prog, you are in the George Vaults 12:30 - 2:30, (plus evening session on Sunday 20:00 - 22:30) and not The Gordon. But I will still hunt you down for the traditional heckling, anyway!

George Vaults pulled out - change of management or something, so it has been moved to The Gordon Hotel. The Vaults were a lvely venue, but the beer is much better in the Gordon
