07 Aug 11 - 02:34 PM (#3203413) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: The Sandman It is a premier festival, but, unfortunately I cannot afford to sponsor it, they are kindly sponsoring me to perform at the festival. Nick are you the Devils Advocate. |

18 Aug 11 - 01:38 PM (#3208354) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: Betsy Two threads on the go at the minute - but on the ships in the night theme - I met someone I hadn't seen before - and I've been around the folk scene well over 40 Years. His fans couldn't believe it when I said I hadn't met him but I had the pleasure onf introducing him ( as I was the MC ). Knocked out by his performance - Steve Tilson. This ranks with meeting El Greko . Great weekend and look out for JRP who are fabulous sound providers. Great other performances from people I'd seen before. Padge looks great after his heart op , Glennwas his usual happy self - and I thoroughly enjoyed myself all weekend |

22 Aug 11 - 01:28 PM (#3210968) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: GUEST,Guest Betsy traditional singers competition .....Julia XXXXXX from Malvern Worcester Arghhh I can't remember her Surname forgive me I also had to remember to introduce " Mrs Vera Ryder the chair of Saltburn , Marske , and New Marske Parish Council" who presented the trophy and the cheque so I'm afraid my head was a bit "overloaded". Anyway Julia put me out of my misery Julia , Padge or Glenn - she is a lovely singer and a popular winner. |

Julia sang some lovely songs as one of the floor singers and I missed her surname, does anyone know it. I took a photo (I did ask her husband if it was OK) and would like to put her full name to it. |

I PM'd Padgett but I expect he's giving it "Rock all" at Whitby and not looked at his PC. |

Julia is up at the shops collecting her Freds with the added engravings. She is appearing at Bromyard Folk Festival as part of the "Ancient Legacy" folk play with other local performers Saturday lunchtime. We remember Fred appearng at Bromyard in the early 1980s Colin |

07 Sep 11 - 07:51 AM (#3219448) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: The Sandman I would like to thank the organisers of this festival. I have always found John Taylor,courteous,friendly and honest,I have always been paid my agreed fee. I have played at a number of festivals he has organised over the years, they have been well organised and fun to perform at. |

13 Sep 11 - 01:20 PM (#3222627) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: The Sandman LYDIA NOBLE won the Fred Jordan cup at Bromyard, so women singers are doing the business. |

18 Sep 11 - 01:27 PM (#3225193) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: GUEST,Colin & Julia Davies The Fred Jordan trophy is a set of horse brasses and is for an unaccompanied song from the under 25s. Lydia Noble was outstanding in a very good field of 10. She sang a song she learnt from her father about stone walling, the job she also learnt from her father. Perhaps she should be offered a combined traditional craft and singing spot at Saltburn! We have have been collecting anecdotes about Fred from our friends who had invited him to their folk clubs, or knew him in Shrewsbury. It has strange being in the final sing at Bromyard where we remember (in the 1980s) Fred always singing the penultimate song, the final song being Amazing Grace by a Robbie from Cheltenham. |

18 Sep 11 - 01:58 PM (#3225209) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Saltburn Festival August 13 From: The Sandman Thanks Colin and Julia for your recollections, I remember Robbie, I believe he was Robbie McGregor a real character, I believe he spent a lot of time teaching children in Cheltenham how to morris dance. I remember playing clubs in that part of Gloucestershire and Robbie was often there. RIP Robbie |
