Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Eric the Viking Date: 19 May 01 - 09:18 AM Looking good Geoff. See you in about 1 1/2 hours. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: GUEST Date: 19 May 01 - 09:31 AM Dear me!!! You don't look too happy??? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Llanfair Date: 19 May 01 - 10:12 AM You look as though you're having a great time!!!! Is that Beer FOR REAL????????? Lots of faces I don't know, so I await the introductions with bated breath!! Cheers, Bron. |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: lady penelope Date: 19 May 01 - 03:55 PM I reckon the beer's the reason for the red eye, your all going to be turned into folkie zombies by the end of the weekend!!!!! Hang on, isn't that what normally happens after a long folkie weekend? Ah, so it's all going to plan. Good. I like it when a plan comes together. TTFN M'Lady P. |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 19 May 01 - 04:13 PM Yearning for captions..... (I see Micca, Ian, Sam, but who are the rest of you?) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: lady penelope Date: 19 May 01 - 04:16 PM Yeah, yeah, apart from Micca I don't know nobody !! M'Lady P. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 19 May 01 - 04:19 PM And Bill! There you are, Bill- I wondered if the place could open without you! Pour me some of that Mudcat beer, please? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Geoff the Duck Date: 19 May 01 - 05:12 PM I'll try to get some captions done during the week. I have had to retire home early after twisting my ankle at around 3pm today. I have been to casualty, and nothing is broken. It was diagnosed as ligament damage, and the doctor told me to continue doing what I have been doing since the fall (and I don't mean Autumn in America). I said "What! Limp???". As for the beer, the "Mudcat DT's" has been absolutely excellent. Shortly before I left, Syd had to change the second barrel. We had supped two times 18 gallons, and there is only another 18 in two nine gallon barrels. It may last through part of the evening, but there will definitely not be any going to waste. We were still hoping that somebody might turn up with a laptop computer which has a working microphone socket (unlike ours, where we can listen on paltalk, but not broadcast). Tyke may have brought one with him, but I was busy being strapped up when he arrived, so we hadn't had opportunity to ask him before I was transported home. Jane has returned for the end of the ceilidh, so if she gets it sorted you will be informed on our other current thread YORKSHIRE GATHERING ONLINE. Our original plan was to finish the ceilidh at 10.00pm and get on paltalk at around 10.30pm (British Summer Time) about 5.30 ESB mudcat time. I will be watching out and hoping to be with them in spirit if no longer in person. quack With sore ankle Geoff the Duck.

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: roopoo Date: 20 May 01 - 04:39 AM Just to start the introductions if I may, the person in the green polo neck jumper sitting opposite Micca, and with the long hair and big hooter is me!!! The bearded guy on the left of him in the hat is Badger, and the lass in the Mudcat shirt across from me and right of Micca is Tig. The lady in the yellow shirt sitting in the corner is Mrs. Duck. The tall lad by the bar dangling beer glasses is Sam Pirt, and that's Magician on his left. Oh, and on the tables may be seen some of Val's excellent food. Behind the bar are Jason and the now very famous Syd. Andrea |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Mrs.Duck Date: 20 May 01 - 01:31 PM The third barrel pulled off at 11pm last night and the fourth was well down by lunchtime. It was beautiful stuff!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Geoff the Duck Date: 20 May 01 - 08:36 PM By the way. Does anyone know anything about Mica's Tankard????? |
|

|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Noreen Date: 21 May 01 - 08:32 AM So it was just wishful thinking that he'd left it in my tent? :0) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: bill\sables Date: 21 May 01 - 09:06 AM Noreen, do you think we should put Micca's tankard into the auction and make the bugger buy it back? Bill |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Les from Hull Date: 21 May 01 - 09:11 AM I'm sure that if he had anything in it he'd have known exactly where it was! |
|

That's pretty good going. Just got home and looking forward to Chester Festival next weekend where I shall no doubt see some of you again. are you sure you have Micca's pot Bill? I thought Badger and Tig had it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Tig Date: 21 May 01 - 02:21 PM This may or may not be true! What's it worth to find out:-)))? |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Noreen Date: 21 May 01 - 10:19 PM I have Spartacus's tankard... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: roopoo Date: 22 May 01 - 02:54 AM I'll re-echo the votes of thanks; took some organising, but it all worked out and everyone should be proud of themselves. Pity I had to miss Sunday, but I had to be elsewhere. Andrea |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Linda Kelly Date: 22 May 01 - 03:10 AM No I have Spartacus's tankard!!! (rehash of old joke0 |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Micca Date: 22 May 01 - 03:49 AM Will all those who Think they have my tankard PM me, and I will make arrangements about retieving my precious treasure Before The Festival season starts!!!!!!! as without this ESSENTIAL piece of kit the necessary lubrication may be absent and prevent me singing( so that may be a method to shut me up!!!) But more seriously, A real big Thank you to all.Especially Mrs Duck, Syd and Val, and Bill/sables, for there friendship and the sheer fun of it all, and to Mouldy for the "tour" and showing me some new things and Novel experiences!! and for the Lovely bottle of wine!!. I will try and write a longer description of what the Gathering was like later...I have got back to ground enough yet... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Mrs.Duck Date: 22 May 01 - 07:29 AM I'm a bit worried about these novel experiences Does Ian know??? Don't worry Micca I have your tankard at school with me unless those two kids I just saw running away from my car now have it! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: bill\sables Date: 22 May 01 - 07:36 AM I have to come clean Micca I don't have your Tankard I did have it. but I don't have it now, on the other hand I do still have the handle from your tankard but where the rest of it went is a mystery to me. I will gladly send you the handle when I get back from the USA. It's such a famous handle that I am sure Max, Bert, Rick, Ctaspaw, and the other US catters would love to see it. Bill |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Geoff the Duck Date: 22 May 01 - 08:04 AM I definitely do not have anybody's tankard, but I do have a right foot which is about 15 shades of purple, and about twice the size of my left one. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Les from Hull Date: 22 May 01 - 08:07 AM Are we talking about a silvery metal container, holding about one Imperial pint, with a handle on one side? No, haven't seen it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Geoff the Duck Date: 22 May 01 - 08:18 AM No Les, I was talking about a long thing, about 12 inches with purple toes! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Geoff the Duck Date: 22 May 01 - 08:19 AM Mudcat Gathering Photos I would like to get a selection of photos from the weekend gathered together on a corner of my "Almost" web site, with suitable captions and names. Because of my abrupt departure, I do not have much other than FRIDAY EVENING. If you have taken any suitable snaps PLEASE send copies to me so I can compile an online record of the gathering. Also, any anecdotes from the weekend might be of interest. Post them elsewhere, by all mmeans, but please send me a copy also. Many Quacks!!!! Geoff the (lame) Duck.

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: GUEST,Roger the skiffler Date: 22 May 01 - 08:38 AM The travels (travails?) of Micca's tankard seem to be acquiring the status of a Grail Quest. Can a ballad be far behind? RtS (the only ballad I know is the Ballad of Bethnal Green!) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Patrish(inactive) Date: 22 May 01 - 09:29 AM I thought I had Miccas' tankard - or at least bits of it. I'll bring them to the Jug tomorrow night. Someone said they had the handle, well I have a rim, perhaps we can fit all the pieces together and come up with one whole complete vessel! Patrish xx |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Bagpuss Date: 22 May 01 - 10:03 AM So, it wasn't Micca's tankard that was crushed under the wheels of my mini as I left? Someone else's? If we collect all the bits together, I'm sure the mice will fix it and put it in the shop window so that Micca can come along and find it again.... Bagpuss |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: GUEST,Lanfranc at the orifice Date: 22 May 01 - 11:12 AM The poisoned pellet was in the vessel with the pestle The chalice from the palace held the brew that was true This is all a smokescreen - the tankard dissolved in consequence of having been filled with cider shandy once too often! (AND it was stainless steel, as I remember.) Sorry about the foot, Geoff, but we all had a good trip, and didn't see why you should be left out, being local and all. Also sorry you had the wrong kind of trip, an understandable mistake, under the circumstances.

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Tig Date: 22 May 01 - 12:08 PM Sorry Micca. I DID have the missing tankard, then Firecat saw that photo ....... |

Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Linda Kelly Date: 22 May 01 - 05:10 PM OK Micca, put fifty quid in a used brown envelope under the clock on platform 4 Paddington Station......OR THE TANKARD GET'S IT ............... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Tig Date: 22 May 01 - 06:01 PM It's disappeared into the deep pit Firecat calls her bedroom!!! The last thing that emerged from there was a life force from a different planet - and I don't mean her. When and where is your next festival/outing with the Moragon Micca? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Mrs.Duck Date: 22 May 01 - 06:06 PM Oh dear! You'll never believe what those two babies just did in your tankard, Micca and it says on the milton not to use of stainless steel!:) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Micca Date: 22 May 01 - 06:34 PM So, Alright, WHO really does have my beautiful Stainless steel tankard,??? and remember Firecat " Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards"( or long established "practitioners") because energy flows both ways and evil intent can rebound remember also ....... "The Rules clear as water strong as air Our guide. Seek not justice lest you get it Seek not revenge lest as its source you receive it for revenge is circular returning whence it came Personal gain puts many things beyond reach only the price remains hidden, some stakes are too high, all outcomes are not understood or clear. But if you would catch a knife in your teeth your nerve must be good and your eye steady" |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: bill\sables Date: 22 May 01 - 06:43 PM Micca,If you go to the top of this thread you will see your tankard on photos 3 and 7 just in front of you. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Cobble Date: 22 May 01 - 07:14 PM Dont worry Micca your tankard has just left Manchester airport bound for.....? Cobble. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Liz the Squeak Date: 22 May 01 - 07:32 PM Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizzards for they can fart not at all subtly and are mostly noxious. The next Morrigan outing is this weekend at Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London. I have limited bed space left. Next one up shares with Phoebe..... LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: Tyke Date: 22 May 01 - 08:22 PM After reading the thread from Liz the squeak could someone going to the Jug tomorrow send my apology to the Horse. I thought it was the Horse that was farting all night! So I picked up a tankard I found lying around the campsite and through it at him! Do you think it could have been…………….!!!! :-) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Yorkshire Gathering Mudlarks From: roopoo Date: 23 May 01 - 02:31 AM And I thought it was merely Eggborough power station's boilers venting! Living where I do, across the road from one pub, just over the river from the Jug, and down the road from the power station, one accepts deep rumblings and roarings as part of life's rich pattern. The tankard will do nicely for a birthday present for Ian - if I can ever get the cider smell out of it. Would Domestos help? I could always use Jeyes fluid. (It works a treat on the yard where the dogs "go"!) Andrea
