Early notice then Mark!

I do think Yorkshire Garland members, myself included would love to be invited

Last year was a bit truncated for one reason or another!

Email me if you have any suggestions as to who from the Yorkshire Garland Group you would like me to invite.John Greaves has already been invited as a guest and I may be able to accommodate one more singer,although the guest invitations have gone out.

LOL!! I have been before and did workshop with Jim Potter, John Greaves, Roger Hinchliffe, and Alma Wright I believe! on Yorkshire Song ~ a must at a traditional Yorkshire sing I reckon!

I was there last year in the afternoon with John Greaves! much underated and a good friend

There are many singers who are worth inviting from the area Tegwen Roberts springs to mind a female voice

Of course if any are unable to come other possible stand in are Jim Potter and Alma Wright, Paul and Liz are also Yorkshire Garland people!

Steve Gardham may be tempted but he doesn't travel too far normally
Ray

have a good Christmas all!

An excellent story and very well told. Truly a passing on of tradition from father to son.
