It's that time of year again. Here's the message form the organizer. Hope you'll all come. Lovely venue, lovely music, lovely food, lovely lovely booze.

Why we remember Daniel Pearl:



The Daniel Pearl Foundation

Cool. I've been looking forward to a chance to hear the Muddy Basin Ramblers again.

Right On!
I will make every effort to attend this year.
As opposed to previous, well,...... that was then,
And this is Now.
Selah!

Is this event kid friendly?
With all that, luverly, luverly bouze?

I remember last year was. IIRC correctly Irishstu brought his wee man ( and his son)along, and there were other kids about. Has it really been one year since I saw Tash and Erhu destroy that young lad who tried to chat them up?... oh lord!

Totally kid-friendly, ginge. Think of a big BBQ on a sunny Sunday except with live music. They're really good, relaxed, fun events. And if the nipper's old enough to walk, he or she's old enough to be told the message of unity amidst diversity, which is the point of the whole thing.

The event will certainly be very kids friendly, there is plenty of running and playing area for them on grass, away from the roads. The Tavern-Premier's and Capone's Chefs will do Burgers, Sausages and Fries, Geneva's will do Melted Raclette Cheese with boiled potatoes (suitable for vegetarians). Will sell Heineken Beer which generously support the event again, soft drinks and Standard Mix Drinks. The Event is bigger and better this year compared with previous years but also more costly to put together. Please do refrain from brining your own food and drinks to the event, profits from sales are needed to pay to organise the event and we also want to make a sizeable donation to the Daniel Pearl Foundation.

I would like to thank Sean Scanlan who spent a lot of his time to put this event together every year. SatelliteJim who will be the stage manager (bands, watch out he just bought a pair of army boots) and all the other many volunteers that help with this event.

One more thing, if you plan to come by Car, park it in the 101, Mitsukoshi area as there is only a small parking lot in the area that gets full quickly.

But I don't want his big sausage fingers sorting through the M&Ms to take out all the red ones! And the MBRs ONLY eat red ones.

I'll have to try and get up there for it. If you see me, say hi. I'm easy to spot - the ginger with cameras.

And Tavern Capt - any chance of some of your yummy fish and chips?

Woohoo, having my own parking spot inside 101 finally pays off!
