13 Jul 04 - 09:28 AM (#1224532) Subject: Things Going on in North Yorks From: alanww After Saltburn FF, ie between Monday 16 and Thursday 19 August, Sandy and I will be staying around the North Yorkshire / Pennines area in our campervan, ready for the start of Whitby FF, on Friday 20 August. Does anyone know of any good folk clubs / English music sessions / singarounds / morris events we should not miss during that interegnum? [We are more doers than listeners - I sing and play the concertina, including for morris, and Sandy plays a lovely mandolin] Thanks! "I thought I heard the old man say ...!" Alan |
