13 Feb 01 - 05:57 PM (#397405) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Dave the Gnome I'll try to give it a whirl but we are in Whitby for the Goth fest. 2 weeks earlier. It was brilliant last year when the two co-incided! Dunno who got the funnier looks - The Goths or the Morris Dancers! Would have loved to get the two mixed (Goth Morris? Industrial Thrash Folk?) but did not know enough peeps! Cheers Dave the GothicGnome |

I have heard of other side who would fit the bill as well - The WitchMen while not intentionaly Gothic would certainly look and act the part (Sorry guys if any out there - don't put the dreaded curse on me!!!) As for S&M, White Rat morris from California have been going donkeys years (are they still???) Never seen them but I believe the bells are fastened directly to the skin - AAaarrrggghhh! DtG |

03 Apr 01 - 09:11 PM (#432626) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Tyke There are quite a lot of mudcatters Heading to Whitby's Moor and Coast festival on the May Day bank holiday weekend. However it is only my bad punctuation probably that has misled you the Yorkshire Gathering is in the Jug on 18th 19th 20th May 2001. This is were the mudcatters will be doing there own thing that is not part of someone else's festival. The Moor and Coast festival is on the 5th 6th 7th May there is a thread I'll send up to the top of the list after I have sent this by repeating this message. Oh I managed to spell moor with an e on the end. If you search for it your Looking for Moore and Coast Dyslexia RULES KO! |
04 Apr 01 - 04:29 PM (#433245) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Tig We're still intending to come but must now wait until Firecat gets back from a college trip to Stratford and I've finished a training day (in a posh hotel with a slap up lunch as a 'thank you' from our head!!!) |
06 Apr 01 - 06:20 PM (#434871) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: GUEST Tyke; is there any chance that M&C will be cancelled? Hope not, as it's a town festival, but would be glad of any news on this |
10 Apr 01 - 08:18 PM (#437734) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Tyke I would say that there is no Danger of the Moor and Coast Folk Festival being cancelled due to the Foot and Mouth crises. The campsite for the festival is in the grounds of the community college so I see no reason why that should be closed. The rest of the festval is within walking distance and in the Town. I know that the Tap and Spile and The Plough, Baxtergate (Which is the home of the Whitby Folk Club held every Wednesday Night) and the Endevour,Church Street are venues this year. Also a long range weather forecast that I heard was predicting that May and June were going to be nice and hot. (As you probably know this is one virus that fares better in cold weather). I often go over to Whitby for the weekend; I was shanghaied into Coblers Monday at the Captain Cook Festival two years ago. Last weekend when I there. I was told of two confirmed cases of Foot and Mouth one in Ruswarp and one at the Abbey Farm. From what I can gather, talking to some of the locals, the word is that the animals were from the same stock. Ramblers and Hikers will find although that many footpaths that run close to or through farmland are closed there is scope for walks along the beach Whitby to Sandsend for an example. But check on the tides for goodness sake I know of, one Volunteer North Yorkshire National Park Warden who had to be rescued. When he was cut off whist walking his dog fortunately he had left word/it was his round at the pub to say were he was going and at what time he was due back. You can check with the Tourist Information Office to find out which walks are to be avoided. Here is the link to get you to the Moor and Coasts web site http://www.moorandcoast.co.uk you can always contact them direct. However if anyone needs a bit of extra exercise the can always join the Scratch Morris Side. I think that Lees from Hull or Mrs Duck will have more information on how to join the side. I have been told that at least one of the Black Bull Bender's has had to be cancelled they were having two weekend this year so please check with the organisers to confirm this statement. Although I know it to be correct it is not my place to tell people. However the Black Bull Bender is I believe held in Farm Building! But let's not get paranoid about Foot and Mouth it only affects animals with cloven hoofs. So unless you are the Devil himself and have cloven hoofs you can only spread it from farm to farm by tramping across footpaths that run through farmland or across moor land grazing. So for DUCKS sake keep away from those areas. |
11 Apr 01 - 01:21 PM (#438214) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Tyke Just lisening to the news tonight and there was a report that stated that the Abbey at Whitby is open for buisness! More confermation that Whitby is open for buisness. I'm looking forward to a great festival. |

13 Apr 01 - 04:20 PM (#439989) Subject: RE: BS: Moore and Coast Mudcaters From: Tig Don't be dafter than you can help JeZ...just think of all the Mudcats who are going including myself, The Badger, Magician, The Ducks!

Don't worry about being alone - we will introduce you to Glen, Chris, Nigel and all the other Moor and Coast Caterers. By the way I thought that the misspelling in the thread title referref to the Moor and Coast Mudcaterers - they have had their food tent in some fairly soggy situations, but still battled through wit the chips, baocn and veggie sausages!
