What a wonderful start for this new Festival. A great ambiance- lovely grounds. The line up wasn't bad, and there were lots of old friends and now a whole host of new friends.
I enjoyed my 45 minute song spot. Quite relaxing and several compliments received.
The workshop was interesting, in that half way through 30 young girls burst in! No more to say on that!
Look forward to the next Festival. The organisation was professional and augers well for the future. I hope Weymouth does more in the way of help and support.

4th THURSDAY at Stikkers
Well, what a strange evening last night. I played host as Chas wasn't available. A fair turnout and a good mix of songs, including a couple of my favourites. But...
it was obvious from the start that the new Landlord had other plans, and they were soon revealed. The Thursday is no longer available. Not only that, but the change is immediate with no chance of re-arranging things in an orderly fashion. A poor way of conducting affairs, but the new landlord is not my sort of guy. And his food is very poor. So many of the folk gathering used to turn up early to eat there- but not any longer.
Thank goodness the Sunray is not at the mercy of others!

STIKKERS
Woken last night at 1032pm with a request to run the next session here (thursday).
Always a fun time, though I have to say it has not been quite the same since Dave n Steff left. But it could be just me.
I will try to make it a good night.
