If there is one for the Loftus fc you may find details there. If the format is the same or similar to last year yOu come along to play and or listen session in one or two pubs in the Am. Lunch sessions in pubs in afternoons Tea time Evening sessions Kicking out time at pubs Into the early hours with sessions in large hut on camp site. There were no booked acts last year and I assume same this year from info at top of thread. you need stamina and to be willing to enjoy yourselves and meet new people It is brilliant. How the devil is the lovely Maggie Gee? She is such a nice lady and was one of the ones who made u feel so welcome last year. That is best I can do for you mate. If you mail Tony you may get more info. Happy Anniversary for the !9th. |
