this is ONLY A POSSIBILITY at the moment! There MIGHT be indoor camping at the local Scout hut at 5 quid for the night followed by a breakfast at the Crown on Sunday morning - price to be determined. This is ONLY a possibility - please indicate if you are interested.

It appears I have to work Saturday & Sunday now? I shall phone in Wednesday Morn to appeal to my ops managers in protest that I booked this up last week and no one has done sod all about it.

I shall not bother coming Friday has I fear I will be the only one there and if I turn up Saturday it will be on a wing and a prayer. Fingers Crossed.
Peeved off Pete.

Romany man I saw you ferrets dancing round the field near the fire at Knockholt. you should make them little waist coats with felt hats and feathers ?

Cheers Pete

Right all you lot of deviants. put down your knitting needles, the sheep can wait. Because TDL can't be there, can you please pass the word about our Fox and Hounds Folk Club being very good, and FREE! Norcs did a brilliant job on their website but we still need more bums on seats. The beer's very gluggable and not overly expensive. There is food if you want it too. Thanks. Sue

Almost RB. I am having a Rocket J. Squirrel from Bulwinkle Moose cartoon flash back.

Hey Pete the Hat. If they are really are going to do a grey squirrel cull in the Uk to protect red squirrels, there's your source for long furry tails. Now I sound like a deviant.

Much philosphy there Dilligaf. Perversion in sex is like spice in food. Without any, things get boring. But I thought the BG donkey kong was somebody else...

I think I'm with the Mick Farren view - We are the people our mothers warned us about... (well, I could name one or two in Hartley who qualify, who else have a singing sheep or a man with pockets longer than his arms... )

I'm still knitting myself my very own sheep with the kit TDL gave me at Knockers...

Rafflesbear asked about the programme - 'any gaps where spontaneous singing might fit in.' Whilst Hartley and Big Pete will be entertaining during Saturday afternoon it is not our intention to exclude any other singers who may wish to join in the session. They will be guarenteed a good choral response. We prefer spontinaity to formalised round the room singing in turn.

We have bits and pieces in different messages but it would be good to have the full programme if someone knows it - hog roast and any non-folk events as well plus any gaps where spontaneous singing might fit in

PS - the ducks were back yesterday - I think they may have been given the contract to restore the pond 'cos no-one else is doing anything :-)

PPS - unless one of them was romany man in disguise

Thanks

no no sherry how common, port and stilton my dear, simply must keep up the tone dont you know, still with the credit crunch ,otford may well be falling flat, (well it will saturday) the poor ol ducks will be buying all the property, as the prices are (ahem, sorry) crumb -ling, should be able to earn a crust or two to pay for the ever dropping property prices, lets camp in the car park, some of my relatives seem to get away with it for ten days before the eviction notice appears ,so a weekend should be fine, ooooohhhhhh how the mafia will cringe, i could make some pegs and luchy heather just to rub it in.

If the Duck house is empty we could all camp there or how about just pitching our tents outside the church that should lower the tone of the place, in such an outstanding area of property values too
