Kathy Hopkirk(Scotland)

 

 

 

Just a slight correction Mark - it's actually Kathy Hobkirk ;)

 

Am I still on your mailing list by the way, as I'd love to try and make it back this year, all health problems (touch wood) having been resolved ?

Anybody who is aged 30 or under as at 1.1.2012 is entitled to a free ticket.Send me a booking form and a stamp addressed envelope stating your date of birth and you do not have to pay.Despite this being circulated nationally only one person has asked and been given a free ticket.Surely not everybody interested in traditional music is over 30!I thought "folk music" was supposed to be cool!

There are still a few tickets left for the weekend cost £25.So if you want to come email or ring me and pay on arrival

 

We are starting the weekend tonight(Thursday 19th July) at The Royal Hotel,Dungworth with many of the guests in attendance including concertina players Roger Digby,Dave Prebble,Geoff Wright plus many other singers and musicians.We'll kick of about 8 ish.If you want pies get their earlier.

 

Only one person under applied for a free ticket and she cannot now attend as she is in France.Are there no musicians or singers under 30 out there who would like to save themselves £25 and get a free ticket?

It's going well and the weather is fine. Still time to get down today!

It's a long way UP to Sheffield from here . Nice idea, but I don't think so! Maybe next year ;)
