Thanks for the info, Hamish. I'll probably try the Crows Nest, by the look of it. I'm the one with the very shiny head, and a flute.

Hi tatts - long time no see!

Not sure about Swanage itself, but there might be some spontaneous music at the Square and Compass in Worth Matravers. And the monthly song session with the Wareham Whalers at the Anglebury will be on Thursday 19th October!

SAD Folk see Swanage Folk Orc last update 2013 but see the rest of the site &/or their FB - event in Christchurch

Sanchobramble keeps a very close eye on things - I would trust him.

nothing relevant at Broadsideman

Solent waves don' seem to list sessions but........... I like the name of the act "Folkwits"!
