    I've been wanting to come to this for years now but unfortunately this is not the year it's going to happen. Have fun and like John said post LOTS of pictures.

    Hope you have a great turn-out Derek for your festival.
    Vicki and I are busy packing things up for our return from Germany to the
    USA. We fly on 30 September.

    I will always remember my visits to Cardiff fondly.
    Many thanks to you and Elaine for a wonderful visit.

    Sorry Derek, I too will be unavailable that weekend. I have very fond memories of two years ago and hope to repeat the experience again some time.

    Regards

    With more advance notice, (and more savings) I might have gotten myself across the pond. Would have been worth it just to see Eowyn, sheildmaiden of Rohan work the soundboard. Slayer of Orcs, bane of feedback!

    I'm a nerd.

    Sorry Derek I have other commitments that weekend. Maybe some future year! Best wishes to you and Elaine and may your Folk Festival be another resounding success.

    Alas I am up in Derbyshire at a railway festival.

    Hope it goes very well.

    Oh dear! Derek, I am also a non-attendee again this year. Elaine gave me the dates some while ago, but I knew pretty much for certain that I would not be able to make the journey. I am now just about able to get through large-ish chunks of a day on my feet - but I have to skip meals in order to be able to do so - not good! Seriously, I simply cannot contemplate being away from home-base yet. I'll keep everything crossed for next year - after all, I dread to think what the floor of the hall must be like as it's not seen me and my broom for, what is it, three years (maybe two)?!!

    Best of Good Luck to the 2011 Fest. and to all of my good friends in Rumney.

    Take care,
    Ham.
