This is to publicise a new event at the King Billy in Cottingham, which runs each Sunday from 8.15. With the working title 'Cottingham Acoustic,' the evening takes the form of a lively, eclectic open mic session. While the focus is not specifically folk based we will welcome folk/trad acts. The aim is to present performers of a range of musical styles with the only qualifications being that they have talent and are essentially acoustic. There is no charge on the door and there is a decent PA system.

Where is Cottingham? Will you be operating in August while my wife and I are visiting England?

I was going to stay in to wash my hair but I suppose I could do that next month. Is Cottingham still the biggest village in the world or has Milton Keynes bypassed it? Cottingham is next to Hull where lots of funny people live.

Alaska Mike

Cottingham is just north of Hull on the east coast of England. We hope to be open in August but you'll have to watch this space.

Hand-Pulled Boy

As far as I know, the Miton Keynes by-pass doesn't touch Cottingham. However, the Beverley by-pass is nearby. You are right about the funny people though

Is fox hunting allowed in this pub?

Re Smoking - Opinion is divided at the moment. There seem to be four options, a) have no restrictions on smoking, b) ban smoking altogether, c) allow smoking in specified areas, d) make smoking compulsory.

Re Fox Hunting - Unfortunately not allowed due to fire hazard. However, we thought we may be in for a drag hunt when the landlady said there was a big TV in the room. Sadly it turned out to be of the wide-screen variety.

Hi I am the one responsible for the acoustic sess in cottingham. Its in its fourth week. Yes you can smoke, no you can't hunt foxes, not sure about smoking foxes......

The crack (as it were). Anything goes as long as it is acoustic and reasonably inoffensive. It runs from 8.15ish - 10.30ish.

Anyway, the plans are

1. maybe have a featured artist once a month
2. run the odd silly competition
3. play, have fun etc etc

do come it will be grand. Just drop us a line at our email address if you wanna know more.

Not to be confused with "Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, where the local authority has spent nearly £1m trying to evict some 400 travellers from three sites bordering the village." Which has put it in the news lately.

OOOPS!
The King Billy is the place to be this weekend. On Sunday we have our usual (very successful) acoustic open mic night and on Monday some of the bands from the Sunday sessions are getting the chance to strut their stuff with some prearranged spots. All are welcome whether to come and play on Sunday or to listen on Monday. Admission is free.
