Just had news that there'll be a MudGather at Banbury once again *hurrah* It'll be on Saturday 11th October at Drayton Golf Centre from 4-6pm ish (bring chocolate)

The Festival is looking REALLY good this year, here's the Website!

So, who's coming????

We are planning to be there, and will be camping this year (which is, I believe at the Drayton).

Just seen on Facebook that Drayton Golf Centre is to close after the festival, and the land will be developed for housing - hope we can give Nick and Lesley a really good weekend first!

We're hosting a welcome singaround in the clubhouse at Drayton Leisure Centre at noon on Friday, so hope early arrivals will come and join us!

Thanks for telling us, I think I will be able to be there (or soon after 12 at least).

Gosh, Kitty! That's an early start. I wasn't expecting anything to be happening then.
I see there's also a Meet & Greet session from 4.00 - 6.30 at the Banbury Cross pub on the Friday, which it does mention on my paperwork, whereas the 'welcome singaround' is news to me.

Hmm, I think Derek gave us the wrong times for Friday - looking at the website, and having consulted Dave Taylor about the timing of his guest spot, I think we'll be starting around 7.30! I've e-mailed Derek to check.

Kitty

PS we will be singing at noon on Saturday though, with John Morris!

Waiting for final instructions from Derek, but yes, our opening folk club session will be on Friday evening!

Thanks Ned!! How could I forget some of my favourite friends? Only excuse is that I did the 'also at Fest' list about 3 days after we came home. Wish my memory worked better!
