Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: GUEST,Essex Girl Date: 01 Nov 07 - 09:36 AM Sounds like a good start to the Christmas holidays, I'll definitely try to make it |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: GUEST,woodsie Date: 01 Nov 07 - 01:15 PM It's about time! I will probably drag Kenningham along. These are always very enjoyable sessions. |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: naughtyforty Date: 01 Nov 07 - 01:16 PM Will try and make it. What sort of time will it be kicking off? |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: GUEST,Girl Friday Date: 01 Nov 07 - 03:30 PM TDL will try and make at least one of those. |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: growler Date: 01 Nov 07 - 04:39 PM Kick off around 12.30 Saturday and Sunday, as with most Barden sessions, it is difficult to give an end time. But I'm sure the normal ' Good Intent ' rules will be adhered to. |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: Geordie-Peorgie Date: 01 Nov 07 - 08:20 PM Who is Juon Barden? Shouldn't that be Joan? Or possibly Jane? Is she related to John Barden's wife, Jan (or is it June)? |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: The Barden of England Date: 02 Nov 07 - 03:03 AM It's "Juan BarDin" which, literally translated means "One helluva noise in the bar". Seems about right to me. His wife "Jam BarDin" is the one that grabs lots of people and 'Jams' them into said bar - that's why it's called a 'Jam Session'. So come along on 22nd. December and join in the jam session and make a lot of noise :-). John Barden |

Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: Richard Bridge Date: 11 Dec 07 - 10:59 AM The suggested combination of a Leopard and Rabbit makes me EVEN MORE AFRAID. |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: woodsie Date: 17 Dec 07 - 07:50 AM Myself and Dave Kenningham will be there with our special mate the legendary "Bill Gardner" |

Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: woodsie Date: 18 Dec 07 - 07:39 AM Luverlee Juberlee! By the way have you noticed that this clashes with another event at Upnor. Typical we have to wait for six months then along come two together! |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec From: GUEST,Growler at work Date: 18 Dec 07 - 07:53 AM It is a shame. But this was arranged in October |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: GUEST,The Barden of England at work Date: 20 Dec 07 - 05:14 AM 2 days to go John Barden |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: GUEST,Bill G Date: 20 Dec 07 - 07:10 AM I know that ruff 'n reddy are running the Sunday session - will JB of Kent be there as well? |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: GUEST,The Barden of England at work Date: 20 Dec 07 - 09:02 AM I'm there on Saturday GUEST, Bill G - from about 12:30 onwards, but whichever day you come you will be very welcome. The landlords are really lovely people and support wherever they can too, plus there's a beer festival, then again there's always good beer to be had at The Good Intent. John Barden |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: GUEST,Girl Friday without cookie Date: 20 Dec 07 - 12:47 PM JB- surely you've guessed that Guest Bill G is Woodsie- I'll be very surprised if he isn't. I have a bad cold at present- probably cat 'flu, but if I don't make it, the rest of the Leopards will. Ben did very well on the radio. Some of the other performers couldn't believe he'd reached such a high standard in such a short space of time. Please encourage him to perform, you won't be dissapointed. Merry Xmas Sue |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: My guru always said Date: 21 Dec 07 - 04:49 AM I'd really been hoping that we could get along to join you all this weekend, but am going to have to do the family Santa run. Leatherhead to Ipswich, Great Yeldham, Newmarket & St Ives on Saturday followed by St Ives, Newmarket & Ipswich on Sunday. I suppose there's an outside chance that we might make it by Sunday teatime, but you'll probably have finished off all the beer and gone home by then!! (If anyone will have a mobile switched on around that time, could they PM me their number please & we can decide as we approach Dartford crossing?) Failing that, have a Fab weekend (I know you will *mutter, mutter*), Seasons Greetings & Best Wishes for the New Year to all!!! Hil x |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: billybob Date: 21 Dec 07 - 08:01 AM My chance to say have a fab time this evening all you folks in Kent!!

Have a Happy Christmas and Happy New year!! love to all Wendy xx |

Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: melodeonboy Date: 24 Dec 07 - 04:23 AM A cracking weekend of music and song. Thanks to all those who came over the weekend, especially those who had the stamina to make it to the very end on Sunday (I think we were all getting a bit knackered by then)! Thanks, as usual, to Karen and Dal for supporting the event and for laying on a great selection of beer, and to the mighty Barden for running the Saturday session. Season's Greetings to you all from melodeonboy (aka the shirt murderer aka 1/3 of Ruff 'n' Reddy). Next folk night at The Good Intent is on 15th January. |
Subject: RE: Good Intent Rochester Wasail 22nd 23 Dec (UK) From: growler Date: 24 Dec 07 - 09:09 AM Just to echo the above, thanks to everyone who came, ( and those who wanted to, but couldn't ) Merry Christmas Simon |
