Saddleworth - Ali's back!

From: Alio

Hi everyone,
Thought I'd start a new thread as the festival is well and truly over - and seems to have gone really well. I am home now as Brian mentioned - I'll be recuperating for 3 / 4 months, but at least I can start to look forward.

Sorry I couldn't reply to all the questions on the other thread - but thank you so much for all your lovely comments and best wishes. I've been very emotional since my op, and keep having a good cry - specially when I get all the cards and lovely messages people have sent to me.

Everyone seems to have had a wonderful weekend, so now we can start thinking about the 10th birthday festival next year. We've already got some artists organised - Bill and Dave, Dave and Anni, Strawhead, Wilsons, New Scorpion Band, Scolds Bridle - I want it to be a really big singing event.

So if I missed you this year, please come back in 2007!!

Lots of love, and thousands of thanks again for all the lovely messages.
Love, Ali xx

GREAT news Alli!
At least YOU can't be blamed for "fixing" the result of the War Of The Roses   ;-p       Keep on getting better and we will see you around the circuit!

Thanks a lot all of you - wish I could have been at the Wars. It sounds to have been brilliant! Geoff was really pleased with it.

I'm not very good at resting (if Geoff saw I'd written that he'd be on his back having hysterics!!) but I'm going to have to behave in order to get fit again.

Ali xx

Hi Ali
Really pleased you are on the mend, After years of promising to steward I actually did it and you weren't there to see it, but I'll forgive you.
The festival was,as allways, brill.
Hope to see you soon, maybe Lancaster again.

I somehow doubt that Ali will be in any fit state to go to Whitby - she'll be twiddling her thumbs at home instead!

Ho hum!

Twiddling my thumbs!!! It hurts now, and everything's hard work, but in a month or so I'll probably be going mad here!!
Geoff's getting very bossy in his old age, making me eat and drink! I had to go back in hospital this week cos my blood sugar levels were too low and I was dehydrated, so I'll have to start doing as I'm told I guess!! For the first time in my life I've no desire to eat anything!!
Many thanks again for the brill messages - it really perks me up. But who were the "strange people" on the info desk? I love it!!!
