Has anyone been to the Norwell Happening at Norwell, Nottinghamshire over the Spring Bank holiday weekend?

I'm curious to find out what goes on and if it's worth the journey.

I think that you can get to Newark by both bus or train.

Yes I've just been searching and can't find much about 2006 Norwell Happening but it's definately on and I'm going! It's free camping and singing in The Plough pub, good atmosphere. I
If you find it's too dear for a taxi from Newark PM me and perhaps we can come to some arrangement to collect you, but not too late on the Friday evening as I would want to be in the pub!!!

I thought Norwell Happening was sidelined in the runoffs for bluelining, in last year's cross-courts. Or am I thinking of someone else?

Sadly I didn't make it cos nobody replied to my email for further details and I couldn't afford to travel 80-90 miles down there on spec. Hope it went well though, and maybe there'll be more info available if it happens next year.

Well, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit last weekend, so it definitely happened as it said on the webpage linked above. Thanks to Murf & Gwen for an excellent weekend!

Lovely friendly pub about 50 yards walk from the camping field, lots of friendly Folkies & great singing. They even sorted the weather out for us! Having had a dreadful journey up there (3 hours on the M25 etc) we chilled out really quickly and had a great time!

Roll on 2014!!

Thanks, Ray. I know Norwell pretty well, but not the Happening. We'll try to call in, Labour canvassing permitting.
