Heading for the station in a minute - look forward to meeting you guys this evening/tomorow. Bringing my harps too so if anyone wants me to join them for a session... catch me while I'm still sober!

Catch22 - Saturday night at the Fest - I can drink all I want but I have to leave at 9:30pm - so much for being dependent on public transport.

Will anyone be driving back to Tamworth Staffs area?

Mr Sherb !!, I resemble that remark.............

Just checking what the prices are as they stand ? I've been trying to save some dosh as I missed out last year but really don't know if I'll be able to afford it or not.

Hope to be there for the evening session with a few undesirables in tow. Look out for the bearded ones. Any one want any tins for bodies I seem to have collected quite a few ....free to good home.

If it hadn't been for the benefactor I wouldn't be coming. For that I am eternally grateful.

Was really looking forward to it after missing the first one, then got made redundant in June.
Comment by ChickenboneJohn on October 14, 2010 at 6:53am
Sorry, but the funding from our anonymous benefactor only allowed me to do a very limited number of places for the ticket/room combo. I did flag this up ages ago as soon as this was on the cards, and also when the places had gone...I'm doing my best, honest.

Eh ? What's this about reduced accommodation ? I am a poor unfortunate too !
Comment by HOLLOWBELLY on October 14, 2010 at 6:30am

Hey HB that is a fine looking T shirt!

Looking forward to seeing and meeting you all on Saturday. Good thing I am bringing my roadie (AKA MrRandomWritings) for all the camera gear I'm bringing!
