Jon will be there, but I have to work until some strange time on Friday and be back on Monday at an unnerving hour in the morning!

I will be there but don't have any transport at the moment. I only live about 20 miles away south. Is anyone likely to be coming along the A5 or thereabouts who could give me a lift?

Should be good!
Tend to forget that it's not generally advertised.
(No hot water bottle, I'd find the long extension cable for an electric blanket, if I had one!)

Tend to forget that this is a ticket only event, don't turn up on the door hoping to get in, it's usually full!
I only wanted to get an idea of the catters who'd be there, the thread wasn't meant as a 'What's on,' sorry!

I wouldn't want to miss it either!
And I'll be there without bags of morris sticks, and without needing to tout for willing musicians....well, perhaps ready for Banbury & Bedworth, not for Whittlebury itself. I'll be far too busy there enjoying the singing.

It's Saturday and Jon has just phoned to say what a fabulous weekend I am missing (thanks a lot). Singing is of a high standard and everyone is enjoying themselves.... so I'll just go back to my cup of tea and gardening magazine....or I could brush the cat... have an early night...

You must mean of the singing, you can't possibly want to spend the weekend at home pottering in the garden, building a new flower bed, drinking hot chocolate and brushing the cat!

Just recovering from the almost 5 hour drive home.
What a wonderful weekend. Singing of the highest quality and so much laughter and good humour. I'll be on a high for weeks.

Thanks to all involved. See you next year.

Yes a great weekend, and I didn't run too many people down in my buggy.
The Wesleys have developed the event with better facilities and kept all that was good about it.
Here's to next year, and counting!

Yes what a lovely, lovely weekend with fantastic singing and a nice long list of new songs I would like to learn. It was great to put some faces to mudcat names for the first time. Huge thanks to Vectis for answering my plea on this thread and giving me a lift to and from Whittlebury without even having met me before. Aren't Mudcatters wonderfull !
