oops yes you're right Noreen - no problem!! Sadly I do have to work Monday but still won't be rushing off!

Timetable for the weekend will be very fluid
Friday night - arrive set up meet old friends and do what what we like best, singing making music and drinking
Supper - something with rice chilli curry or similar (£2)

Saturday -breakfast barbeque if fine (£3)
PM singarounds and music sessions
Around 5pm - Iced Gems at Teatime - time for the quieter more contemplative songs or to try something new
Evening - singaround with choruses , music sessions
Supper - something with rice chilli curry or similar (£2)

Sunday - breakfast outside again if fine (£3)
Kazoo workshop with Selby when he arrives
Lunchtime sing and music session in the pool bar (ie one with pool table in)
From 2pm Sunday lunches PLEASE LET ME KNOW IN ADVANCE IF YOU WANT THESE SO THEY CAN ORDER MEAT
Afternoon and into evening Survivors session music and singing

If fine there is also plenty of room outside for playing and singing for those who like Al Fresco (the well known Italian folkie!)

There will be a raffle and Mrs Cobble has made one of her legendary mudcat cushions but any other donations CDs bottles (full ones of course)badges T shirts sweets etc would be brilliant.
There was also a suggestion of an instrument sale with small commission going to Mudcat funds so if anyone is trying to sell something bring it along. Would 5% to Mudcat sound reasonable?
Jane (always open to suggestions that don't end in off)

Sunday Lunch for the Bratling and I too please? And possibly any other food that is going.... especially breakfasts!

I will still be on my crutches so a willing volunteer for the duration will be repaid with quantities of alcohol.... can you be charged with 'drunk in charge of a walking aid'?

If anyone still cares, foot is now completely purple from toes to heel....

As I passed the Black Dog on my way home this evening the Temperature was 15C blue skies with high cloud. Travel news when you are in the general locality you will see power stations if you are heading for the one with the biggest chimney and 6 cooling towers (cloud makers) at either side of the power station {12 in all } you will not go far wrong.

Linda, sorry to hear of your hassle. If you want a lift any other time to Selby, I'll oblige- don't go before you have to. Glad Hazel's coming too.

Hille will be taking my tent space, Jane.

Theresa and I will probably want food on Sat and Sun as well. I'm not a curry or chilli person so am hoping for a selection from the normal menu.

I assume the Black Dog will be serving food from their usual menus as well as the Mudcat budget meals for poor folkies...
Mrs.Duck and myself had a meal at the pub before finalising it as a venue for the gathering, and they do some nice stuff.
Quack!

Sorry folks, been "away" in more ways than one - too much has happened in the last 2 weeks. BUT - Titch (Vanessa) and I will indeed be arriving for opening time at the Black Dog on Saturday (abt 11am with a bit of luck), staying till Sunday afternoon-ish.
We will NOT be using a tent, as Zany Mouse and MCP are kindly putting us up (tks guys!).
