Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 16 Aug 09 - 04:19 PM Ah. I thought you meant Ash, as in Ash-cum-Ridley, near Fawkham. By no means as handy as I thought it was. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 16 Aug 09 - 04:55 PM I thought you meant Ashford. or hashford has I call it? I will give it ago. |

No idea what beer but it should be real ale. I advise contacting the landlord,Richard. The website I was given doesn't seem to work. |

Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: VirginiaTam Date: 17 Aug 09 - 03:50 PM Hope they ain't no choo choo men strike actions on the bank holiday. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: VirginiaTam Date: 20 Aug 09 - 01:10 PM Dunno now if we can make it. 1 hour and 3/4s drive home late Monday night, then work the next day is a bit much. Sigh |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 20 Aug 09 - 01:38 PM Do I deduce from the comments that this is the Ash near Sandwich? (Link isn't working.) Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: The Barden of England Date: 20 Aug 09 - 01:55 PM Yes Penny, it is Ash near Sandwich. John Barden |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 20 Aug 09 - 02:05 PM Thanks. I think I may be in Gloucestershire, anyway, but if not, I could try to be there. It's surprising how quickly one can cross the county these days. (Though the A2 on a bank holiday might not be at its fastest. Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: GUEST,Girl Friday Date: 20 Aug 09 - 02:18 PM When my informant first mentioned this, she said it was in or near Gillingham. The eventual location is a bit further away it seems.She comes from Romford, and the pub and therefore, the folk club and festival, is run by her friend, the landlord. All the info I posted, was left on my phone last week.She doesn't do computers. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 20 Aug 09 - 03:48 PM Well, I suppose that from Romford it is quite near Gillingham! |

Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: The Barden of England Date: 25 Aug 09 - 01:48 PM Sue - Will that include the incredible Ben? John Barden |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 25 Aug 09 - 03:40 PM 1. May I suggest putting up a "Folk against Fascism" banner? 2. John, you should put Ben forward strongly to Helen Treacy. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Girl Friday Date: 26 Aug 09 - 12:54 PM Richard- who is Helen Treacy? Forgive my ignorance. John - we have Ben this weekend, but don't know if we have him Monday as yet. Sue |

Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 29 Aug 09 - 03:46 AM I won't be in Gloucestershire, so I could be there. Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: GUEST,Girl Friday Date: 30 Aug 09 - 07:49 AM Much more beer |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 30 Aug 09 - 09:43 AM Not if driving... Perhaps the Sarf Lunnon mob would wisely organise themselves into a car pool, since I can see that Romany Man is lift-bereft, but the Tribe of Leopards are coming and Penny S (probably). I think I will probably come after all. Who from the Mudway Towns area wants to organise another car-pool? |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: melodeonboy Date: 30 Aug 09 - 09:57 AM It sounds good. I'd love to come, but I'm gigging. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: VirginiaTam Date: 30 Aug 09 - 10:44 AM OK looks like we will be there but not staying too late. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: GUEST,Girl Friday Date: 30 Aug 09 - 11:22 AM Now, that's better... |

Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 30 Aug 09 - 12:40 PM Or die of pneumonia? |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 30 Aug 09 - 01:59 PM Situation changed due to plums. Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Richard Bridge Date: 30 Aug 09 - 02:01 PM Enjoy plums. Without double entendre. |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 30 Aug 09 - 02:26 PM I do enjoy them. My gut, hnowever, has a different opinion. Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: Penny S. Date: 30 Aug 09 - 02:28 PM And Sue, there's a revised version of the Sarf Lunnon parody on the South Australia thread. Penny |
Subject: RE: Mini Folk Festival Kent UK 31st August From: GUEST,TDL Sue Date: 30 Aug 09 - 06:31 PM What doth the Barden say? Didn't quite catch it! |
