Subject: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 28 Mar 01 - 06:35 PM We have set a date- 18th,19th and 20th May at the Jug in Chapel Haddlsey. Camping for tents and vans is available on site but let us know how many. There is also limited B&B available nearby and some local 'catters may have floor/couch space, Nothing is fully set yet but we hope to have use of the local church hall for a ceilidh/concert on the Saturday with singarounds and music sessions in the pub all weekend. Excellent food is available on site or if weather permits we could have use of Syd's barbeque. Hope you can make it! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Morticia Date: 28 Mar 01 - 06:38 PM if it is humanly possible, I will be there...oh goodie, something to look forward to. |

Will have a word with the Gnome and see if any of the Swinton crowd fancy coming over-we all have passports for crossing the pennines. Lottsa luv Phil |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 28 Mar 01 - 06:54 PM Keep 'em coming the more the merrier! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Geoff the Duck Date: 28 Mar 01 - 07:07 PM If you are travelling across the Pennines from Lancashire, don't forget to wipe your feet on Todmorden before you come in! Quack!!! |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: John J Date: 29 Mar 01 - 04:28 AM Where in Yorkshire is Chapel Haddsley? John |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: bill\sables Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:01 AM John J, Chapel Haddsley is a crossroads between Selby and the M62 on the A19. It is very easy to get to as it is near the A1 and M62. So any U.S. or Oz catters just follow the M62 from Manchester airport, or those of you coming from Europe to Hull just follow the M62 the other way. Geordies and Scots come down the A1 to the M62 and turn left and Southerners come up the A1 or M1 as far as the M62 and turn right. You Can't Miss It. Bill |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Geoff the Duck Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:02 AM It's about 4 miles south of Selby on the A19 to Doncaster. We will sort out directions, maps, etc. when we have time. GtD |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: GUEST,micca at work Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:31 AM Oh, Goody.........all things being equal and 1/2 term being a week later...I think we can aim for this... Thanks all.... |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 29 Mar 01 - 06:39 AM I'm sure that we will be there (if we can cadge a lift). Are there buses from Selby or Goole? We'll be tenting (as the excitement is in tents). We're really looking forward to seeing everyone - i'nt winter crap! Les and Maggie |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Catrin Date: 29 Mar 01 - 06:39 AM Hey! Count me in folks! I am extremly poor at the moment - any floor space? anybody? This should be good! Cheers, Catrin |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: John J Date: 29 Mar 01 - 07:40 AM Thanks Bill, as one born in Lancashire perhaps I should have asked ' where's Yorkshire?!' A couple of other questions, if anyone can help: Is the beer decent (and NOT nitrokeg)? Is there anywhere to park my caravan? Can I come? John |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: bill\sables Date: 29 Mar 01 - 07:53 AM John, of course you can come, You can park your caravan in the Jug field, and the Jug has won awards from C.A.M.E.R.A. for the best real ale pub in the region. As far as being born in Lancashire goes you had better ask some of the Tykes about pasports etc. I am a Geordie so the Roses problems do not concern me. Les, I think bus's do run from Selby but not Goole ( nobody comes from Goole except Sam Pirt) but you should be able to get a lift by car if you give us a ring at the Jug 01757 270307 Catrin, There will be plenty of floor space for you. Bill |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Linda Kelly Date: 29 Mar 01 - 08:20 AM Well if the Vdub gets through the MOT next week then I shall persuade t'other half. If not then I shall divorce him and make my own arrangements. |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 29 Mar 01 - 08:57 AM Bill - thanks, mate. We can get to Selby dead easy if there's no-one needs the ballast from Hull. About the mention of passports for people born in Lancashire. Lancashire. Now the name rings a bell, but I just can't place it at the moment. Lancashire. Lancashire. No, it's no good - it's gone.

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 29 Mar 01 - 11:18 AM Wow, it worked! The beer garden is where we'll be putting most of the tents and there should also be room in the field if the pony budges up! I'm getting quite excited!Please note Mudcat even appear on the Jug web page. |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Noreen Date: 29 Mar 01 - 12:10 PM Good website Madame Duck... looks great! Bill- were you suggesting that Catrin might need plenty of floor space???! Now we just need to book some good weather for that weekend, in which case I'll bring me tent... camping in the Jug's beer garden sounds like heaven! Noreen |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 29 Mar 01 - 12:10 PM Well done Mrs Duck for the Jug's website. I notice that in the list of instruments welcomed there is no mention of any of the ones that I play. So somebody's done their homework - I've only been twice. Mind you, I see that there's no mention of banjos either, eh Geoff? What I really wanted to say was that I've spoken to Maggie since I first posted and she's really looking forward to meeting up with everybody again. And JohnJ, Lancashire, Lancashire ... no, still nothing! Les |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: JeZeBeL Date: 29 Mar 01 - 12:17 PM Hey, can I camp even though I only live 5 miles down the road?

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 29 Mar 01 - 12:50 PM Eric (poor lad ) has ofsted (spit!)in the following week so we are on a mission to make sure that he has a bloody good time even if he has to dash off!

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: bill\sables Date: 29 Mar 01 - 12:53 PM Eric's wrists are OK since they took the handcuffs off |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Linda Kelly Date: 29 Mar 01 - 01:03 PM Spoke to other half and he's up for it.The VDub doesn't have any back seat so lifts are difficult but transporting of instruments and tents shouldn't be too much of a problem if that would help anyone. will liaise with Les & Mags |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Noreen Date: 29 Mar 01 - 01:13 PM Anything I can do to ensure Eric has a weekend to remember? He'll float through Ofsted after this with a serene smile... :0) If you want a lift, Catrin, you have first refusal. Any takers for a couple of back seats in a singing car from the west of the Pennines? Noreen |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Morticia Date: 29 Mar 01 - 03:52 PM Can we rustle up ( rustle up, geddit?) some sheep for Eric or is the dreaded F&M going to be a problem?I'm on for braiding duty again Eric, if called upon and I'll try and divest Gomez of the bodrhan before we leave....we'd like camping space in the garden too please, unless we can have floor space behind the bar? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:10 PM It will be a bloody good session if I'M present or there'll be trouble!!!!!!!!Morty you haven't seen the size of the bar but no doubt you will help increase the area by a barrel or two! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Lanfranc Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:22 PM I just might be able to make the trip, that weekend is looking reasonable at the moment. Never having come to terms with the mortification of the flesh that camping demands, I'd hope to find some B&B or similar in the vicinity. What are the chances? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:31 PM Good Alan. There is someone in the village who does B&B. Give the Jug a ring and they'll tell you the number (see clicky above for Jugs number) |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Morticia Date: 29 Mar 01 - 05:56 PM are you implying that I am the size of a barrel or two, Mrs Duckie? |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 31 Mar 01 - 11:52 AM Now , now boys! Your link worked perfectly Bill and I have just sent John an e-mail with suggestions for a special badge to commemorate the Yorkshire gathering. This is fun already. One or two people have pm'd me to say they are coming and whether they are in tents caravans etc. This could prove very useful rather than having to go through all the thread each time so feel free to do so. Thanks Jane |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: BanjoRay Date: 01 Apr 01 - 12:16 PM I think I may be able to get there for at least part of the weekend - it sounds great (especially since banjos aren't illegal) Cheers |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: GUEST,Banjo-flower Date: 01 Apr 01 - 12:42 PM Well if banjo's aren't illegal i may look in myself cheers Banjo-flower |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 02 Apr 01 - 01:12 PM Syd the landlord loves banjos and since his favourite tune is duelling banjos it will probably be requested at least a couple of times during the weekend - so be warned! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Noreen Date: 02 Apr 01 - 02:26 PM How is Syd now, Jane? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Tyke Date: 02 Apr 01 - 04:27 PM I was a little worried that the venue would be too small but now you have come up with the cleaver ploy off allowing Banjo Players! That should make enough room to get to the bar! Only Joking! Please, please do not leave your Banjo on the back seat of your car! Someone did that last year at the Moor and Coast! And when they got back to their car someone had smashed the windscreen! Not only that there were Two more Banjo's on the front seats! See you all before the Yorkshire Gathering in Whiby for the Moor and Coast! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Apr 01 - 05:02 PM We're still deciding, can I provisionally book a floor space next to Morty - I know she farts, but hey, I have ways and means..... LTS |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 02 Apr 01 - 05:19 PM Syd is doing well Noreen. He has an excellent assistant called Jason who does all the heavy stuff for him and also gives him resting space should he need it but to us he is almost back to his old self. And a weekend of everyone drinking and eating in his pub will definitely put the colour back into his wallet! |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: GUEST,micca at work Date: 03 Apr 01 - 06:51 AM Ickle Dorritt, Liz's method, as you correctly surmise involves a Champagne cork and a croquet mallet!!! I am definately up for this, and may camp in the beer garden, i believe a straight line is the shortest distance between 2 pints |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 03 Apr 01 - 09:46 AM Maggie has to be in Driffield (East Yorks) on the Saturday, and so will be joining us later.

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: GUEST Date: 03 Apr 01 - 03:22 PM Tyke , Moor and coast gathering - where and when? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Tyke Date: 03 Apr 01 - 09:09 PM There are quite a lot of mudcatters Heading to Whitby's Moor and Coast festival on the May Day bank holiday weekend. However it is only my bad punctuation probably that has misled you the Yorkshire Gathering is in the Jug on 18th 19th 20th May 2001. This is were the mudcatters will be doing there own thing that is not part of someone else's festival. The Moor and Coast festival is on the 5th 6th 7th May there is a thread I'll send up to the top of the list after I have sent this by repeating this message. Oh I managed to spell moor with an e on the end. If you search for it your Looking for Moore and Coast Dyslexia RULES KO! |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: JeZeBeL Date: 06 Apr 01 - 03:09 PM Wow, I'm getting really excited about this now. I haven't been camping for ages and where better to do it than at the jug inn with all their lubly beers....I'm heading there now actually, so I shall speak to y'all later. Emma xx P.S - am I allowed to bring my bodhran????????? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Geoff the Duck Date: 06 Apr 01 - 03:20 PM JeZeBeL - tie a broom handle to it and everyone will think it's a banjo Quack!!!!! |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: JeZeBeL Date: 07 Apr 01 - 08:12 AM Thanx a lot Mr. Duck but I wouldn't sink to that level!! If there's one thing worse than a bodhran then it has to be a banjo........I could always disguise it as a jembi......no one ever says anything about them!! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: John J Date: 07 Apr 01 - 09:04 AM Jayohjo in Russia: WE should learn some Russian songs! Shame you can't be there. John (Manchester, England) |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Joan from Wigan Date: 08 Apr 01 - 08:56 AM I'll be there, and so will Derek the Box. I'm really looking forward to it! Joan |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Noreen Date: 08 Apr 01 - 11:20 AM Great, Joan! This is going to be fun. |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 08 Apr 01 - 03:57 PM The hall is booked! Val, the landlady sorted it for us in the week. I'm not sure if we're going to be able to have it all afternoon or just evening but whichever it will be a cracking do! We've even got some dancing in the afternoon-Mouldy dances with a North West side and Bill plays for a longsword team so they are coming along to add a bit of colour. I've even approached the local brewery to see if they can do us a special brew but I haven't heard back on that one yet! So if you haven't made up your mind yet let me do it for you-come you'd be sorry to miss this! Jane |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Noreen Date: 08 Apr 01 - 05:00 PM Which is the local brewery, Madame Duck? (Academic interest only, of course.) Glad Syd's going to be able to enjoy this...! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 08 Apr 01 - 05:39 PM Brown Cow Brewery in Selby, Noreen. Blue clicky to see Sue Simpson, brewer! |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 09 Apr 01 - 06:09 AM Are we having a raffle for Mudcat funds? Perhaps we should start looking out for prizes. |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 09 Apr 01 - 08:02 AM There will certainly be a raffle Les. We are already looking at some ideas for prizes but bottles etc for minor prizes will all be gratefully accepted or anything musical especially if its a mudcatters latest CD (Bill?)or even just silly things as booby prizes!. We will also have to cover any expenses too Which hopefully won't be too heavy. I am looking into the idea of T=shirts as well but may ask folk if they are interested rather than order a batch and get caught out. Certainly any money collected over the weekend will go to Mudcat funds. |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 09 Apr 01 - 08:03 AM I could really do with starting to get numbers so can I repeat an earlier request that if you are definitely coming send me a personal message saying how many and whether you are tent, caravan or sweep up with the empties. This doesn't mean anyone can't turn up unannounced (please do) but if we are looking at large numbers we can plan accordingly and vice versa. Thanks Jane |

Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Tig Date: 10 Apr 01 - 08:27 AM We're coming and I know the Magician bagged a space for his caravan when he was down last weekend. I should imaging we'll either need space for the tiny tent or cadge a bed in his van. Hope to get to the Jug tomorrow. |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 10 Apr 01 - 11:30 AM Jolly good. Could still do with a few from further afield too. Maybe some of the German mudcatters might like to get over for it and so far we have noone from North of the border. We're thinking of taking our awning so that there is somewhere to have a night cap or an outside session during the day if the weather is good. MInd you if you can still walk as far as our awning at the end of the day you aren't doing it right! But the offer is there |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 10 Apr 01 - 11:38 AM Just done a very quick head count and we appear to be at around 40 so far!! This is going to be a GREAT weekend! |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 10 Apr 01 - 12:17 PM The awning is not at the end of the day. It's the beginning, isn't it? I'm still looking for a lift for Maggie (see earlier in thread). Cheers, Les |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 10 Apr 01 - 12:26 PM It probably will be nearly morning, Les! Come on, anyone able to bring Maggie from Driffield on Saturday teatime? |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: John J Date: 10 Apr 01 - 12:36 PM Who is this Noone from North of the border? JJ |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Les from Hull Date: 10 Apr 01 - 01:17 PM Could be Peter Noone. We'd better start practising "I'm into something good". |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: John Routledge Date: 10 Apr 01 - 06:44 PM Have just explored Patrish's Link. At 10,000 scale can almost see bumps on Syd's field. Presumably PH is The Jug and not the acidity of the beer. Looking forward to meeting the 40 visitors!! Cheers GB |
Subject: RE: Yorkshire Gathering 2001 is on From: Mrs.Duck Date: 10 Apr 01 - 07:14 PM Just returned from the Jug-a business meeting of course. We have discussed beer food and computers and Syd's reply to all were no problem! Beer- we will almost certainly have a Mudcat special ale brewed by Brown Cow Brewery. This will be available at the pub and if you want to bring suitable carry out containers you can take some to the hall on Saturday night. There will not be a bar at the hall but you can take alcohol with you. Food-the Jug is reknowned for its good food especially pies. If the weather is favourable we will have a barbeque on the Saturday evening before the ceilidh. Val will organise the food so no need to bring that. Computer-Syd has agreed to our setting up a live paltalk Mudcast especially if we show him hiw his computer works! More about this later. So you can see we didn't just go for the food and beer!! |
