There's a campsite two miles the wrong way (away from town) from the Hill Inn (great venue but very dear food, soup could be a fiver by this year!). Thanks for the reminder to check out B&B! John

I might try to get along - especially to see Bob & Stu - but would be travelling, not staying over I imagine, as only live about 40 mins away

Assuming my ankle holds up we shall be there, in our motorhome. These can be parked in the main carpark by the community centre, and also in the pub carparks, by arrangement with landlords, so presumably caravans would work too, but if you're talking about camping within tent I don't know. There is camping up by Ribblehead Viaduct, but the way the weather is going I'm not sure about that either. Certainly there are b&bs but they're likely to book up.

Its a great area of natural beauty, but I made the mistake a few years back, of going to and entering the amusing song contest. It all seemed very clannish - and it seemed that way to other contestants, some of whom had come even further than I had from Nottingham), and it was a tad disappointing. Can't fault the place though.

It was the first time I'd been, and it was a great experience seeing that big railway viaduct - well worth going, if just for that.

We may roll up on the Friday, but we'll have to leave on Saturday 'cos I playing a ceilidh on the Saturday night. All depends on finding a suitable spot to put the caravan.

Just to say, I know the good Doctor (5 posts above) is also playing.....on Sunday afternoon at The Falls Cafe. Hope the weather is as kind for this as it was last year. We all had a lovely time playing outside the cafe on a still Autumn day with the sound bouncing off the valley sides...... beautiful!

Need a weekend at home I'm afraid.

Rozy, try the Baa Folk Club in Bellingham, home of the wonderful Landermason. Only just found out about it from Fiona and Paul at the weekend so haven't been there yet, but hope to make a trip in the near future.

Paul, you shouldn't have ordered soooooooo much rain! Good job the ESC was watertight.

DMcF Band's 4 hour stint was ace and warmed the place up no end!.

So, in spite of the appalling weather, it was a brilliant day. Thanks are due to the Ingleton organisers.

BBP, sorry....my rain dance was clearly too effective!

Enjoyed our (Blind Summat!) gig at The SMC....plenty of people in! Ben & Robin were great, I thought anyway.
Flying visit though as we had to immediately drive up to Scotland for father-in-law's 70th....would rather have stayed!

Barney....no, when were they on?
