16 Aug 10 - 03:45 PM (#2966587) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: fisheye Hi folks, yes it's that time of the year again. the folkmob Knockholt camp is from Weds 8th Sept to Sun 12th Sept. Those that have been before know where it is and are welcome. Hopefully the weather will be friendlier than it was in June, however we are going to try and use the markee more. RB will you please arange for your usual services please, as i am getting weaker as i get older. Leadfinger: I am sure your face is familiar and will be welcome to join us. fisheye |

16 Aug 10 - 04:49 PM (#2966636) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: VirginiaTam We will be arriving Sept 10 eveningish. Shared dinner is what night? Do you guys want my texmex stuff again? I supposed the banana nut bread is required. |

16 Aug 10 - 05:01 PM (#2966648) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: Richard Bridge I will service the chainsaw and I suppose I am going to have to make harissa paste and tagine again. I may also be able to get a volunteer to make a sort of accompaniment thing involving cous-cous and very lightly blanched peppers, and a side salad with a non-mediterranean dressing, a peppery vinaigrette. I am planning to arrive Thursday and also bring the awning and maybe gazebo. That should make sure it rains. If anyone has a blown air paraffin heater we can run the blowers off generators - but just having it available should reduce the risk of chill! I have a large paraffin burning greenhouse heater but I am nervous of it in a crowded marquee with drunken folkies. I can vouch for Terry. Some of you may have met him at the late Dave Bryant's barbecues. He has a very nice Docherty mandolin. Terry PM me to obtain location details. |

The plan is if I and who so every else want to make a start on the Marquee we can in regards to fixing the roof stucture.Ie the Apexs and poles that make up the roof. and fix the roof canvas. We can then wait for more abled bodied folk to afix sides and lifting etc. We planned to do this last year but were told that we couild not untill Mick arrived. When Mick arrived he was somewhat bewildered. Regards Pierre. I would rather put a Marque up sober then to be asked to help when I have just got back from the Tally Ho and Iam completely Rat arsed. |

30 Aug 10 - 09:03 AM (#2975816) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: Pierre Le Chapeau An indian summer in September that sounds good. I have had a fantastic crop this year of Tarragon Lemon Balm, Tomatoes the size of Cannon balls. Beet-root s ball variety and (cucumbers Yellow exotic cucumbers. corsets purple variety & Chocolate Peppers. These are all unique varieties grown from seed s from the rare seed company who specialize in the conservation of both very old and rare seeds. I have also grown a rare red sweet potatoes grown in bags made of woven black cloth resulting in a excellent yield. The seeds are damn expensive at nearly £!0,00 a packet but the yield is fantastic and of course one can leave some to go to seed for another bumper crop of all the above next year. |

30 Aug 10 - 10:43 AM (#2975873) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: Richard Bridge I have had some lovely little yellow tomatoes (Sungold): totally delicious but they are tending to split their skins (so have to be eaten immediately). My larger tomatoes of several varieties have been suffering from blossom-end-rot. My various chilis have been slow to ripen too. The chard was a disaster. I might try purple carrots next year. |

30 Aug 10 - 03:33 PM (#2976114) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: fisheye RB: You have regularly water tomatoes, to prevent splitting, It may seem you over water them ,but they drink all you supply in reason. This also prevents blossom rot. fisheye. |

I have lots of cherry tomatoes, many courgettes and lots of very nice apples. Chillies are growing well but are not yet red.

Best ever deal on wood - all that wood for that price. By the time Fisheye and I had finished turning the trees into logs on Fri AM we had a veritable wall of logs! Wevva was lovely on Sunday (unlike George's fuel pump) |

12 Sep 10 - 05:23 PM (#2985307) Subject: RE: Knockholt Autumn Gold From: Girl Friday Glad you all had a good time. We enjoyed Gastove's do, though the acts were a bit thin on the ground this year. So glad the weather was nice today, and the Wat Tyler Festival was well attended. We weren't even allowed back into the bar/Fab Stage area without an arm band, so I can't see the fringe events being at all free. The barn where we had the sing around was massive, and only feet away from the main stage. We went in to look round while the sound checks were going on, and it was unbelievably noisy, mainly because Faustus have a full drum kit on stage. There were solo acts on whilst we were singing, which wasn't too bad. We ran on until the Bad Shepherds set, then sat in the sun listening to them. I put out 25 Crayside Folk Day fliers, and all but a handful were picked up. |

Equally some stunning music and singing? A very well done to all players and singers . A very Well done to all cooks and folk that cooked wonderful food? To Pat and Deb who got me to the field and to Ken & Roberta who got me back in that huge Tiger Tank thanks very much. I also hasten to add that Roberta and Ken both provided Joy with blankets and sleeping bag fore she had guitar But ''had no Donkeys breakfast or tent? Well done? The fire issue was a bit of a Palaver and maybe some tact should be used by the has and when I want to be a Fire officer? Having said that Fisheye Fueled the fire well. Well done;. but heed.

Friday and saturday nights were great, Fire marshaling went well and my new gloves certainly helped stack the wood where I wanted it to create a good fire, not many complaints this year about being cold. One unnecessary incident which was totally preprogrammed, enough said. This was definitely one of our better September camps, I hope you all enjoyed it. fisheye |
