They are marked with a Y rather than a price on the skeleton programme)on the Festival website. This sounds a good idea. Does anyone know who the tutor is? Valmai (Lewes) |

We could all resort to those strange mudpacks which are being heavily advertised on Facebook these days* but the stewards might just cut us in half and count the rings instead. I've just found out that these are indeed young beginners' sessions; the tutor is Jill Shepherd. Valmai (Lewes) * I don't know if FB keep decorating my page with these because of my profile picture or because I've told them my year of birth was 1914. |
