Is anyone going to the Miskin folk weekend near Llantrisant, Wales? Has anyone been before? Me & KB are hoping to get there Saturday

This is like the old Kipling one.
"Anyone for Miskin?"
I don't know, I've never Misked!!

Possibly a corruption of "Maes Gwyn" = white field

Well, I went to Miskin... It was lovely, a very laid back atmosphere, very friendly, good food, booze and company as well as good fun!
Danced with Mr Red, nice to meet you sir, loved the steps joke!
Jude & I have obviously got more than the same taste in music - almost identical handbags led to a minor panic, when she mistakenly took mine and I ended up with hers! fortunately, I knew where to look! and the panic didn't last long! Nice to see and hear you again Jude!
Best bit of fun the whole weekend was the absolutely mad scratch band at the ceilidh on Sunday night - What an amazing sound we managed to make and what a fantastic collection of scars we had between us! I came home mesmerised and somewhat envious of the fantastic voice of Ali Byrne and the wonderful harmonies of Capella! worth the whole weekend for just to hear them sing! - and there was lots more talent than that - I'm going again - assuming it runs again - if it does, support it, it made a loss I believe this year - and I'd hate to see it disappear. Well Done Andy for organising this fantastic weekend, pace egging and all! Happy Easter bunnies in this Burrow!
Cheers, Lucy
