Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 29 Oct 01 - 05:28 AM Uuuups, my memory is obviously faulty. I did not only mis-name Jackie as Jane, I also gave her Trevor as husband... Sorry! Trevor, PM read and answered. Member photos viewed! MudGuard |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Trevor Date: 29 Oct 01 - 04:43 AM Brill photos Andy. However, in the interests of my continued domestic bliss, I hope you've had time to look at the PM I've sent you. (A quick squint at my entry in the 'Members Photos' bit will explain!) |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 27 Oct 01 - 06:25 PM All that and he makes jam too? MUDGUARD, COME BACK!!!!!! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 27 Oct 01 - 02:20 PM Bill and Sam (and Ian), you nearly caused serious burning to me! I was cooking some cranberry iam when I thought it would not harm to (at last) listen to the Windy Bottom 2001 CD I bought at Llanstock. I was just beginning to fill the iam into jars when "The Rooster" was on. I nearly put some of the boiling hot jam over my hand as I had fits of laughter!!! Great song! MudGuard/Andy |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: John J Date: 27 Oct 01 - 02:00 PM Nice one Andreas! It brings it all back.....! John |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 27 Oct 01 - 06:01 AM Great Photos MudGuard, and I did get in more than one didn't I!! Still haven't quite come down from it.... ah, what a glorious weekend... Let's do it again soon! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 26 Oct 01 - 06:47 PM I was quite sure it was your son, I wasn't very sure about the name... |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Llanfair Date: 26 Oct 01 - 02:12 PM Great pictures, Andy. The unknown fiddler with local Simon is David Bannister, and yes, David is my son. Cheers, Bron. |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Matthew Edwards Date: 26 Oct 01 - 01:59 PM Andreas, thank you for those lovely pictures. Was it really only two weeks ago? seems like ages ago. Anyway your photos bring back some happy memories. Looking forward to Llanstock III. |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Mrs.Duck Date: 26 Oct 01 - 01:31 PM Great photos Mudguard. |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Snuffy Date: 26 Oct 01 - 08:51 AM It looks like it was the "drinking of the rum" verse from Bobbing Up and Down Like This |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 26 Oct 01 - 06:26 AM Noreen, it was not orchestrated by Micca, it was the song from Alanww where everyone was supposed to make silly movements - I can't remember exactly what, ask Alanww about the details. To answer your question some postings above: simple tunes - I still fight against the technic of the whistle |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Noreen Date: 26 Oct 01 - 05:41 AM Not too incriminating- lots of singing/playing/drinking going on- totally unrepresentative of the weekend... :0) I like the picture of the synchronised drinking orchestrated by micca- what was going on? That chocolate cake was yummy, Andreas, you can come back and visit any time! Thanks, Andy and Jeff. Noreen |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 26 Oct 01 - 03:39 AM The pictures are up. Now see for yourself! And yes, Liz, you are in (at least) one of them. MudGuard |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 25 Oct 01 - 07:47 PM Did I get into any of them? Was I doing anything I shouldn't - like strangling the bratling? LTS |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Noreen Date: 25 Oct 01 - 06:37 PM :0) oops... |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 25 Oct 01 - 05:42 AM Uuups, I think I divided the pile in two, on one side all the incriminating ones for my own use only, on the other side the harmless ones for giving to Pene. But by accident ;-) I then used the first pile instead of the second for Pene... |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: alanww Date: 25 Oct 01 - 05:32 AM I look forward to seeing your pics, Mudguard ... I hope they are not too incriminating! I went down to Sammy's bar ... |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 25 Oct 01 - 04:23 AM Finally I got my photos on the way to Jeff (Pene Azul). I had to have the film developped and got it back on Friday. I gave the slides to a colleague on Friday to scan them (I do not have a scanner for slides, only one for prints) which he did over the weekend. Monday and Tuesday I was not at work (fever and other un-nice things), so I only got the digital images yesterday. And they needed some bit of fine-tuning (as on some pics the flash did not work properly...). All you have to do now is wait for Jeff to put the pics online. Btw, SGD is of course known as Silly Girl Disease. I must have had an attack of BSE (bad spelling epidemic, not what here in Germany is known as BSE - bovide spongiforme encephalitis or mad cow disease). |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Diva Date: 21 Oct 01 - 10:06 AM It was...it was.... |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 20 Oct 01 - 04:33 PM The giggling was caused by a serious attack of SGD (Silly Girl Desease). |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Linda Kelly Date: 20 Oct 01 - 04:16 PM What was the giggling about???? |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Mrs.Duck Date: 20 Oct 01 - 10:56 AM Well its got to be the singing (and the giggling) on Saturday night after the ceilidh. Now back at home penniless and Malteaserless so had to make do with smarties! |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Llanfair Date: 20 Oct 01 - 08:12 AM Julia's onto it!!! PM your address and she'll post them. Cheers, Bron. |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 20 Oct 01 - 05:58 AM Er.... I forgot to pick up my scarf from Bron, and I may have left my camera case this year.... it's getting to be a tradition! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: lady penelope Date: 20 Oct 01 - 05:12 AM Cor, yeah, Liz! We MUST do that again! Pure magic. The whole weekend managed to be, at once, relaxing, invigorating, laid back, intense........ I thoroughly enjoyed myself. There was only one down side......going home! TTFN M'Lady P. |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MudGuard Date: 17 Oct 01 - 05:02 AM The best moment? It lasted from arriving and ended on leaving! MudGuard (the representative of everything non-British at Llanstock 2001) |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: John Routledge Date: 16 Oct 01 - 06:03 PM It was great watching the girls giggle. Most guys have a lot to learn. *BGiggle* John |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Diva Date: 16 Oct 01 - 05:59 PM Best moments....lots of them. Pippins,the singing,the giggling(very silly but lots of fun)Belles Bonnie Bogie. Julia at Pippins is a treasure and couldn't do enough for us and the food was just sublime that raspberry pud was something else!!!!!!! Ohh and I won some very nice chocolate in the raffle (no...not Malteezers) Diva |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Llanfair Date: 16 Oct 01 - 05:21 PM Did you go down to ffynnon fair, John? The healing well was there long before there was a church on the site. Cheers, Bron. |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: John Routledge Date: 16 Oct 01 - 05:11 PM The Llanfair Churchyard was magical. John |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Linda Kelly Date: 16 Oct 01 - 04:51 PM The singaround at the end of Saturday evening -singing with Suevg and Noreen, -oh and the garlic & herb chicken at Pippins!!! Come to think of it, it was also seeing Sam Pirt's new hairstyle -I love it Sam!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Noreen Date: 16 Oct 01 - 04:40 PM The last few miles of the drive to Llanfair, through the beautiful, rolling green hills, with the anticipation of meeting friends old and new and making music together. BTW, I am fostering a collection of cans of Stella that were feeling lonely when everyone else had left the trailer. If the legal guardian wishes to reclaim them, I will keep them safe until such time as a handover can be arranged. Otherwise they will be adopted and assimilated... Well, Mortie found a kitten a good home... :0) |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 16 Oct 01 - 04:36 PM That's all we've EVER done together - sing improperly!! We know a lot of the same songs but only ever get to do them with lots of other people.... this was the first time we'd done anything as a duet...... LTS |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: MMario Date: 16 Oct 01 - 04:23 PM Have you sung improperly together? (It sounds much more interesting that way, anyway!) |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Liz the Squeak Date: 16 Oct 01 - 04:14 PM Was it his birthday recently then?? Lady P the CMOTs' are in the freezer now.... So what was everyones most memorable moment then? Mine was singing a song and realising in the last verse, that there wasn't a single sound AT ALL anywhere in the Institute but my song..... a deep and meaningful hair on end moment - and that's a lot of hair! Coming a very close second to that was Lady P and I doing the Harp song of the Dane women - Lady P - I've got the words in my book now (we missed a verse, but who'se counting!), and realising that Lady P and I have never actually sung properly together before..... LTS |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: lady penelope Date: 16 Oct 01 - 02:42 PM He had them for his birthday, Diva! ( and I think he's a licker!!?!) President of the association for the terminally bemused, TTFN M'Lady P. |

Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Diva Date: 16 Oct 01 - 01:18 PM Why what do you do with the Malteezers Micca? |
|
Subject: RE: Llanstock 2 the conclusion From: Micca Date: 16 Oct 01 - 01:14 PM I had about 1/2 of this written when Snuffy posted his song above, so here is my attempt to encapsulate the w/e, and in spite of the great temptation I havent mentioned Malteasers or eyebrows... LLANFAIR AND DELIGHTFUL It was pleasant and delightful one midsummer's morn In fact it was October but that wouldn't rhyme Off to Llanfair Caereinion Mudcatters did repair and the 'Catters sang melodious in the bars around Llanfair and the 'Catters sang melodious (3x) in the bars around Llanfair We Gathered at the Institute for Llanstock 2 To sing and meet friends and to Ceilidh there too And Bron did us proud twas a hell of a bash If it wasn't for melodeons and the Low Trailer Trash as end of verse 1 Some songs They were depressing and some they were not And one was a beauty about a big lump of snot There was lots of good singing and for Jez a Happy B And Bill Sables played melodeon fuelled by fags and Yorkshire Tea Then the circle in the Institute it quickly grew And every one was playing and was singing there too And early next morning someone said "lets have one more" Bron said "No you silly Buggers, I have to lock the door It was fine on Sunday morning when the 'catters arose As some in the trailer they searched for their clothes Line up against the wall me friends for the group photograph And we'll send it into Pene so they all can have a laugh Goodbye Llanfair Caereinion until this time next year As we all trudge off homewards full of friendship and beer And well learn some new songs and tunes two or three And we know we will return again and join in Llanstock 3 |
