A new folk club has opened up in Barking, East London/Essex on Monday nights.

Held at the St Mary & Ethelburga Irish Social Club, William Street, Barking, Essex (or East London, depending on which side you live)

It's near the mainline Barking station and can easily be reached by bus and train.

For more details, contact Chris Bennett on 020 8554 7720.

We're hoping to go along next Monday, so I'll report back then.

There are a lot of William Streets! For those of you that use Multimap, etc, it's IG11. I might also be there next week, Liz.

Sorry, I was just using the info on the flyer - maybe this is something we should let them know.....

Is there more than one William Street in Barking?

Only one. It's the 13th one down, clearly marked "Barking, IG11". Although it's the wrong end of the Hammersmith & City line, I can't imagine having any difficulty in finding it myself.

Refresh - hoping to make it there but may find it difficult - Manitas is dancing out with the East Saxon Swords tomorrow in Waltham Abbey - folk club members beware and don't buy them any beer.

I went to the club last night, a good evening. We got a friendly welcome from the locals, one of who contributed an excellent version of the Lakes of Colflynn. Room has good acoustics – only complaint, no good bitter.

Glad it went well, I had an alternative evening planned for me by Limpit..... by the time she was finished, I was exhausted!

Good luck with it and hopefully see you next week.
