Have a good TSF meeting, a bit far from Sth Yorkshire although you do have some excellent speakers and interesting topics!

This will be an excellent event.

In the evening the Lewes Saturday Folk Club meets a few hundred yards away in the Elephant & Castle. We have an evening on the theme of 'Robin and the Merry Greenwood', full details of which are on this thread.

Some people from the Tradsongs Forum will join us in the evening. Admission is £3 tonight and everyone is welcome; bring songs and tunes on the theme, and let me know if you'd like to reserve a particular song or ballad.
