Excellent this thread is up and running I have booked the dates off this evening so I have peace of mind I will be there.

                Has I was going over,
                Those wild Knockholt mountains,
                I first met Captain Woodsie
                Drinking pints of Larkens.
               
                I first produced a cigarette,
                And I then produced me Rizla
                I said sit down on that tree stump man,
                and I,ll make us both a R...a.
               
                Witha Oh whata parlarva ana da
                Knock down that Larkens man

Naughtyforty, we didn't have a choice it's always the closest weekend to the 21st (remember??), we only get to choose when that falls on a Wednesday. Anyway you've got me worried now because Louis makes his first communion next year too, but I suppose we could always rush back to Eltham for a few hours and stink the church out with the smell of camp fires it will make a nice change from incense. By the way are you still staying at ours on December 5th (Folkmob party).

IMHO inflatable sex is scary.

Actually this may be true for links 3 and 4. Oh hell pick a link.

or did the church clash with the Druids,,,,mmmmm...
Anyway during these dark dismal days of winter we can participate in exuberant fantasies of the coming 2009 Knockholt season.
However I do warn you all, no two Knockholt camps have every been the same, The unknown factor adds to the excitement, especially when Pete The Hat starts his song writing this early.

Near enuff. Lifetime insomniac with head cold from hell. Surfing Mudcat, You Tube, Wikapedia, Cantaria and in general being front pew member of the First Church of Google. And doing some WORK work .... Parish Register handlists... Yawn.

Other half (had cold first) can sleep through my very audible symptoms, but will come looking if gone too long. It is a hangover from Andie's passing. He checks to see that I am OK.

Been up since 3:40 am, now 8:30 am. Think I will risk some cold meds and sleep when he is awake and can make emergency call if I have a reaction.

I still don't get the kangaroo thing?

And still mulling over ways to make next year's Knockholts. I may save up so we can hire a camper van just for the Friday evening thru Sunday bit. 2010, we will have newer car and caravan. Yippeee!

If I have not got rid of my little old van, and if my noisy daughter does not do princess bit and insist that she will NOT go under canvas, you can borrow that - but I think you have no towbar.

However, the likelihood is that daughter will if coming do the princess bit.

The joke is simple. What do you get if you cross a kangaroo with a sheep? A woolly jumper!

Subject: RE: Knockholt 2009 dates

I get the joke. I just don't undestand what a kangaroo has to do with Knockholt. Think I am trying to read too much into it. Need more meds and sleep, not sheep.

Thanks for the offer of van. But as you said, we have no towbar and we can't make it until Friday evening anyway due to Chris' teaching.

If there is a way I will find it.

No, the sheep are the connection to Knockholt, which is why the kangaroo had to go there to get you a woolly jumper...

Latest on recovering heart patient. I have just scoured the internet for, and printed the leaflet that he imagined he'd brought home from the hospital. He's busy reading it. He's eating less rubbish and more fruit. Sleeping a bit during the day, but going to bed earlier and getting up by 8 am. He musn't go outside in wet and windy weather, so today he's a couch potato refining his aimlessly mooching about indoors skills. Before I saw the dos and dont's I got him to unscrew a jar of pasta sauce. He mustn't do that. He's watching Coronation Street, we haven't watched soaps for about 3 years. Half an hour of Corrie later and he's looking for something else to do. Time for tea.

Pigs In Space!!!! Woot for Link Hogthrob! Loved the Muppet show and most famous curmudgeons Statler and Waldorf. Favourite character Swedish Chef (didn't google once have a Swedish chef translator).

Don't remember much about Laugh In except being yelled at for sneaking down to basement (family room) when I was supposed to be in bed, to watch it. I remember the characters but not the actual jokes. Judy Carne, Goldie Hawn, Artie Johnson, Joanne Worley, Ruth Buzzy, Henry Gibson, Gary Owen and of course Rowan and Martin, there was big goofy blonde guy too. Remember Fickle Finger of Fate and I had a button/badge that said "You bet your sweet bippie" which I had to hide from my Dad. Not appropriate for a 9 to 10 year old to be sporting.

Ahhh memories.

Of course it was Muppets not Laugh In.... but in Laugh In I remember the running jokes like the German soldier hiding behind an aspidestra "Very Interesting....but stupid"... after a sketch or a joke. Goldie Hawn either was very young or she had loads of facelifts through her film career, or , most likely, both. I was around 16 and able to watch with my parents. We all loved it ! Never worked out what a bippie actually was! There was another Pig Soap in the Muppets, a hospital drama.

I have heard sheep stuffed with ferrets is quite nice, but not sure where to put the rockets. I suppose kangaroos could have been sheep with rockets attached. I will have to consult my Darwins Theory Manual. Laughing is part of the Knockholt code so every body should practice before they come ( you also do not need words or an instrument to perform)

No wonder your strings were breaking! The tuning should be G D A E from thick to thin. So, tune the bottom (thickest) string to G then play it on 7th fret and tune the next string to that and so on ...

"but who [plays the blues on a Mandolin?"

Yank Rachell and Ry Cooder come to mind, Pete. The mandolin was a very significant instrument in the earlier days of blues. Here's an extract from a mandolin blues website:


"Although little-heard on commercial recordings after the 1940s, the mandolin played a significant role in the history of blues, with its first use probably dating back as far as that of the more familiar guitar. Throughout the '20s and '30s, the distinctive sound of this little instrument could be heard throughout the South and showed up on several recordings. A number of musicians continued to play and perform blues on the mandolin into the '60s . Today there is raising a new interest in the Mandolin Blues with some very cool mandolin players ( well actually guitar players with cool mandolin skills )."

Good luck with it, mate!

Subject: RE: Knockholt 2009 dates
From: GUEST,Girl Friday sans cookie

Now a poem by Steve O'Kane for Trevor... sheep related.

There once was a rather large Leopard,
who said to a very small shepherd;
"I'm partial to Spam,
but I'd rather have Lamb,
not to play with...
but salted and peppered".

The shepherd said "don't be too hasty;
I know that my Lamb's rather tasty,
but it's mostly all fat;
(that's not good for a cat,)
think of what it might do to your waisty"

The leopard, (whose first name was Trevor)
said "Don't you start tryin' to be clever,
I can eat all I wish;
put it there on my dish,
and I'll still be as light as a fevver!"

Well, the Leopard he carried on eating,
(despite the accompanying bleating!)
at the Roadkill Cafe
he was munching all day;
(a belch was his favourite greeting)

He'd roll up a fag with some 'baccy,
it might have been normal... or whacky,
but it all made his blood,
somewhat sticky...(like mud)
.....(...and it's hard to pump blood when it's tacky.)

So one day his heart said "I'm tired.
this isn't the reason I'm hired!"
I don't mind a job
but it's making me sob..
I could rest if the bugger expired!"

So by way of a delicate warning,
the heart had a rest-break next morning;
when the Leopard came to,
he was there in the zoo
in the birthday suit spots he was born in!

The vets say he ought to get better,
but he must heed their words to the letter,
so to help him to sleep, he no longer counts sheep!

but he cheats,
and counts cheeses like Feta!

Tune anyone?

Horray at last my Mandolin sounds like a Mandolin thanks to Keith Ferris of folkmob.
even the Cat noticed the differemce instead of fleeing in sheer terror at the sound of the mandolin he sat down and look up enquiringly at me has if to say ! MEOW THATS BETTER.

UPON CLOSER INSPECTION OF THE DEVICE WE FOUND THAT THE TUNING METHOD i WAS USEING WAS CORRECT,( Sorry to the Edjit in the shop I take aback calling you that,) and indeed the instument was not far out, The trouble was the Bridge was completely skee wiff and the line of the strings along the neck of the Mandolin was completely out of line.
PRACTICALLY HAS IT WAS IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO TUNE.

cONSIDERING THE CHAP IN THE SHOP TOLD me that the instument had been set up i again take abaxk calling him a Ejit and replace it with The Deciving Edjit in the shop.

Richard Bridge you were right a few threads back I quote.

Thats if they know how to do a set up?

RB... love it

My mom use to recite this little poem when she was fishing.

Of all the fishies in the sea
My favourite is the bass
He climbs up on the seaweed trees
and slides down on his





hands and knees

She always caught the most fish.

That goat thing is more disturbing than any of the sheep stuff.

Due to folk lighting open fires on the field last year and burning bloody great holes in the ground I suggest we make it quite plain that cooking is only done on the fire during the day or off the ground on a tree stump like I do, or the farmer will get really pissed off. if this gets out of hand.

I have located the owners of Knockholt mine and they said to contact them nearer the time and they will arrange a day time visit, which will not interfere with any music sessions I stress that this visit is not for the faint heated or those with walking difficulties or anyone who is remotely scared of the dark. Parafin lamps on loan from Chislehurst caves will be on offer and anyone who has a torch bring it along. we will be shown around by the owner and the tour should last about an hour, No money required. Dress to go down a mine. and wellie boots or hiking boots a deffinate.

If no one wishes to go I go on me own I book it for the Saturday afternoon about 2,30.

considering the floods and gales we had September last it might be a good idea in June to have the Marquee where it was last September but turned sideways on to prevent great gusts entering the tent. That way we wont have to have the Par-larva and rigmorole of putting up a makeshift enterence shelter which blew down on top of me the second it was put up.
sideways on will prevent gusts (if there are any in June) entering the tent and blowing everything over, like my beer.it will make it less drafty and hench warmer for the folk and less dangerous. Brians cigarette end blew off the fag and went stright in me eye.

Its one of those you can take up and when you want to bring it down you cut the engine and it glides down.

Its great Gundulfs gonna start proceedings off on the Saturday night,without doubt Knockholt is getting bigger every year,I,ll be there very early Wednesday morning and Polish Bird is joining me on Thursday.
Hoepfully Polish Bird will be there on time this year last September she was late and got lost and I missed the Thursday night dinner cause I set opff to look for her which peeved me because I had contributed £12.00 of Chicken breast towards the dinner and by the time I found her and we got back to the Marquee everything had been eaten and cleared away.

It has come to our attention that a certain MCAvity Chicken is implicated in the case and is, at present, a fugitive from justice. We have issued an arrest warrant, and would like anyone with information to come forward.
