Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 28 Mar 06 - 07:21 AM Sorry Ted, could let Terry "leadfingers" or yourself get there first, sad really isn't it |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 28 Mar 06 - 07:23 AM Oops Ted .......... back to the Abacus, I think you'll find that's 301 ! |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Paco Rabanne Date: 28 Mar 06 - 07:37 AM see you at 400, you swine! |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Cath Date: 28 Mar 06 - 10:18 AM Right let's get back to a bit of sanity. No one has thought to mention that the programme is currently in the very capable hands of a very capable programme compiler. It will be at the printers in a bit and should be available to buy for a very modest fee, hot of the press, by Easter Weekend! Aren't we a clever bunch? |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Alexis Date: 28 Mar 06 - 12:54 PM Having a programme before the festival will be hard to cope with. No doubt there will be more letters in the express about it from the old brigade. Well done all of you. |

Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: panurus biarmicus Date: 28 Mar 06 - 06:04 PM if there are any traders out there you couild do with booking as market hall is filling up so any old hippy stuff, food, trammel and tish would be good as well as useful hardware, medical gizmos or bondage gear suppliers - strangley ( and creatively) to save hassle we are making booking via our chums in Tourist Info Shop -check Kirklees Council Website for contact details Morris sides coming thick and fast and my right hand woman even turned one away this week but think we can find space on sunday for anyone who wants to strut thier stuff STOP PRESS we have a samba band ! so this is now a world music festival too now i guess ! bring yer maraccas !! |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: SINSULL Date: 28 Mar 06 - 06:39 PM Is this where you meant to post? |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Cath Date: 29 Mar 06 - 03:19 AM You'd be amazed what folkies are into - not speaking personally of course, I just have my wonderwoman outfit. I can remember though in the distant past that a local carpet company wouldn't advertise in the programme as folkies didn't buy carpets and a children's clothes shop wouldn't because folkies didn't buy designer clothers for their kids. As if! How things have changed!! |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 03:31 AM If there is a stall that sells inflatable sheep I might just come (no pun intended) |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 29 Mar 06 - 04:23 AM Domt know about the inflatable sheep stall..We have had an enquiry about inflatable goats though.. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 05:10 AM HELLO GUEST CALLING HIM OR HER SELF, Tyke!! DO NOT USE SOMONE ELSE NONDEPLUME WHEN LOGING ON AS A GUEST. YOUR COMPUTER CAN BE TRACED!! Fun is fun but pretending to be a Mudcat member is not funny. I'm sure other Mudcatter's will agree with my annoyance. George Clarke |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 29 Mar 06 - 05:17 AM No need to shout Tyke, ask Jones the Shepherd he's a man after your own heart ;-) |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 05:29 AM Help please, would anyone who has any antidotes about Brian Lawton, Please help me to do a little research about his life. PM's are fine but better still it may be better to add them to the Holmfirth Festival of Folk thread. Brian Lawton's Memorial Concert details featuring Various Artists can be found at Holmfirth Festival Of Folk http://www.holmfirthfestivaloffolk.co.uk/programme.htm |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 29 Mar 06 - 05:37 AM Tyke, excuse my ignorance is Brian Lawton one of the two chaps who ran folk clubs in Huddersfield for years ? Glad to see you described as an artist at long last, however the description was one word short, surely there should have been a reference to p**s Smile and the world smiles with you :-) |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 05:53 AM I'm not that angry! Raggytash if that was you as a Guest? I just wanted to point out (this is an on going problem with Guest postings) that if someone post as a Guest he or she may or not be the person he or she purports to be. If you are someone who is posting to the Mudcat on another computer as a guest, on a regular basis, then your credibility whilst doing so has been reduced. Talk about Foot n Mouth. err sorry Foot in Mouth! Yes guest Rattytash thats the Brian. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 29 Mar 06 - 06:10 AM George my old sheepshagger, t'was I that posted as Guest Tyke earlier, you may buy me a pint in recompense next we meet. I am aware of the hinderance of someone posting under my name which occured frequently last year, and I agree it can be annoying especially when done out of malice as it seemed to be at the time. Anyway I'll look forward to that pint, which I may even enjoy at the Holmfirth Festival of Folk Cheers Nick |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 06:38 AM If and I do mean if that is you Raggtush! I expect we shall have to have a pint of the Guest Beer at Holmfirth festival of Folk. Come to think of it have we a Mudcatter using that No deplume. Guest Beer that is. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 29 Mar 06 - 06:48 AM tis I George and I shall hold you to that my little Ovine worrier, a pint of guest beer on you will be a fine treat and one I will look forward to and relish. Does anyone know of the cost of tickets for the Doonan family, only seen them once and I have to say they were brilliant |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 29 Mar 06 - 10:56 AM The tickets should be arriving at Picturedrome on Friday..The tickets are £ 7.50..However as I am feeling genrous..Users of this mudcat forum can av em cheap at a fiver....This equates to a free pint of Taylors.. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Cath Date: 29 Mar 06 - 11:59 AM Oh No (as they say in the Archers). Holmfirther, you will have flocks of sheep coming along if you are selling the tickets cheep! Actually it conjures up quite a spectacle - The Doonans and sheep. No I must stop it and get back to the timetable. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 29 Mar 06 - 12:41 PM Tickets going sheep at a fiver a go.Cath that is a bad gag |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Raggytash Date: 29 Mar 06 - 02:01 PM Book me and the Wombat down for a ticket each please ! |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Tyke Date: 29 Mar 06 - 04:11 PM Please note, Holmfirther, that Wombat is not the name of one of Raggytushes sheep. Raggytush just trying to get in the front stalls. This ploy obviously to lessen the possibility of buying anyone a drink by seating himself as far away from the bar as possible. He spent most of Last Whitby Folk Week in the Plough. I'm not saying that he is as tight as a …………… on second thoughts I don't think we should mention any more small creatures. The fact is that I only said that I would buy him a drink to stop him spitting feathers. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 29 Mar 06 - 06:33 PM To complicated..........................A guy is lost in the desert he comes across this old jewish trader...dying of thirst he asks for water..at which the jewish trader replies dwanna buy a tie ?..the guy who is dreaming of a drink says no and walks off in dissgust..the trader shouts out to him there's a diner owned by my brother just over the hill with loads of water........several hours later the guy desperately in need of a drink returns to the jewish trader...the trader asks what happend'?.. thirsty man replies with..'He would'nt let me in without a tie'.................PC So no tie traders please. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Cath Date: 30 Mar 06 - 04:35 AM Is that PC or not PC? I'm not sure. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 30 Mar 06 - 04:49 AM Cath, surely you mean PC or not PC that is the question |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST Date: 30 Mar 06 - 06:11 AM Which aspect of questionable PC are you referring too..Using the word 'jewish' or incorrect attire..? Or is ones' sence of humour being tested ? or is it the diner's problem for having a dress code ?..If the jewish man did'nt have a tie and needed water from the same diner and was refused for not wearing one what would be the difference ?....No more gags from PC |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 30 Mar 06 - 08:34 AM Wha.......... |

Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST Date: 31 Mar 06 - 05:19 AM Is penguins okay... |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: Cath Date: 31 Mar 06 - 07:05 AM NO! NO! NO! Surely it should be ARE penguins OK? |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: GUEST Date: 31 Mar 06 - 07:43 AM penguins are us..................ok |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 31 Mar 06 - 09:19 AM FIVE WEEKS TO GO.......... |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 31 Mar 06 - 09:22 AM Personally I percieve penguins to be particularly pointless. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: joshuarobbo Date: 31 Mar 06 - 10:14 AM How do you mean, there now`t better with a brew . |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 31 Mar 06 - 10:26 AM They also go down a treat wi' tossed salad |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 31 Mar 06 - 12:05 PM No, I mean they are all round and fluffy.Pointless. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 31 Mar 06 - 01:26 PM Hedgehogs have points.Lots of them.And what do points make?PRIZES. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: joshuarobbo Date: 31 Mar 06 - 02:12 PM Good game good game......... |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 31 Mar 06 - 02:26 PM I forgot to mention armadillos and sticklebacks.They have points.Unlike penguins, and the man famous for wearing shagpile carpet on his head.There was no point in him at all. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: holmfirther Date: 01 Apr 06 - 04:31 AM Some of the food from the pacific rim [life types' unknown]had lots of points but penguin was the main bit..so there is some point in them to cullinary freaks from the far east...and if my memory serves me right theres' some in the freezer up at longley farm..[they are having a habitat issue]..Which brings me back to Johnie Spitfire..He works at Longley farm..I wonder if its him impersonating a penguin ?...I'll have to check that out..PC |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 01 Apr 06 - 06:09 AM I hope Jonny Spitfires not in the freezer at longley farm.He'll be using frozen peas for bullets and chicken drumsticks for bombs!And I personally prefer to see him in th nook.Bomber pilot, penguin, or yoghurt maker.Any will do. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: joshuarobbo Date: 01 Apr 06 - 01:41 PM I have got it on good authority that spitfire ml705 will be out of the hanger & patroling the holme valley for frendly folk & not the fockers. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 01 Apr 06 - 05:32 PM I can't wait to see him.Someone should compose a song. And the fockers can just.....get lost. |
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk From: dozy rozy Date: 01 Apr 06 - 05:49 PM Incidentally.Where is Soldier boy when a song is required? Bomber command requires a suitable anthem. |
