well, Friday nigh, I went, I sung, I left at near midnight.

Very cosy little group, some fantabulous performances. Don't think I can make tonight though. I am shattered as not properly recovered from freezing weekend prior camping in Knockholt.

trying to figure out who the mixed duo were to my right. Stunning guitar work and they did a couple of his own penned songs, one of which I have heard performed some where else. Wish I could remember it. Song about a rambler, asking forgiveness from his lover. This is going to haunt me all day.

I hear rumours that certain morris sides are finishing their sets early to rush back home up the A13 and watch A Certain Football Match ....
