I believe we have a caller(?Sally). It looks like we have a mandolier (is that what a mandolinist is called?) so we could do with two or three more - p'raps guitar, fiddle, 'tina? If we had a few more we could take turns and have a bit of a bop as well. Do I have any support in NOT wanting a drummer or any amplification? Steve |

No amplification or drummers is fine by me, but you may want to take a listen to Geoff's new toy; a Peruvian Cajon. Looks like a box, sounds like a very subtle drumkit. Do you still want session drivers? If so Geoff and I are up for that. Now; back to helping the police find the bastards who stole my caravan this week... Tim from Bit on the Side |

Schantieman's and my half hour spot at the folk club, singing with Schantieman and Pete Grassby (in the interval) at the wonderful ceilidh where Steve gathered a great scratch band together and a brill evening was had by all. The Poppy House singarounds went really well. The vaults irish session didn't happen, but the Tuns session worked well. The 6 Bells sing went well (inside and out... Bit on the Side!) due to being expertly driven. We carried on till midnight on Sunday! The stewards did a wonderful job as did my campsite managers. No local people came so far as I know. Must be something I said! Oh and on Monday morning I had to go to hospital for an xray on my foot and it appears I have gout!!! Sal |
