Only a few days to go now !! How many "catters" are going ?? I know Patti & Ned are,and some of the Welsh contingent, and Monsieur Rouge no doubt ; we will be there for all four days and staying on our boat at Upton Marina ; river trips POSSIBLE if you're nice !! I will be turning out for "Happenstance Border" (Winchcombe) on Sunday, but the other days are free for "sessions" etc !

Rotten luck, Terry ; we'll miss you . I'll look out for you ,Noreen; will you have your concertina with you ? I can now play "Tommy Bhetty's" if you know it ( in D of course ;playing it on a guitar is hard in ANY key ! ).

Bubblyrat, Not knowing The Poppy us your great loss. One of the most friendly and successful Clubs around. Make the effort and find time for a visit. To quote Mr Punch "This is how to do it"

Well now, OldNic , I look forward to meeting you or some of you . I'll be arriving this afternoon with Tradsinger, who is a folklorist (with Romany interests) and is a noted (he can play several !) melodeon player ; we shall be wandering about this evening looking for unsuspecting musicians to join in with, which may, sadly ,entail visiting several pubs .
