"It was really great!!  Such fantastic music with a lovely atmosphere.  Had a brilliant time.  Can't wait until next year!! "

"thanks for a great weekend - please convey my thanks to anyone you see who were involved in organizing such a nice event! "

"Well another completely wonderful festival! We and our families had such an amazing time. Can't wait for next year. Thank you for organising such a terrific weekend of fantastic music. See you next year"

"great weekend-really enjoyed it-well done-Demon Barbers, Colvin  Quarmby, John Tams,  Faustus, oysterband particularly good-stewards, facilities, buses really good"

"Thanks for the booking for your festival - Maggie, Dave and the band all really enjoyed themselves and thought the whole thing was really well run and had a great vibe. I hope you were equally happy with things after all your hard work. "

 "Thanks again for putting us up over the Festival weekend. As you probably  gathered, we had a really good time. Hope the Sunday night went well.  Sat. night in Marquee 1 was particularly good, with the Woodshed Band,   the Whiles and John Tams. I enjoyed the Oysterband more than the last  time I saw them, though I have to confess to being somewhat bemused by  their star status (as emphasised by the vocalist wearing shades at  midnight). I keep thinking maybe they heard the Levellers about fifteen
 years ago and thought, 'hang on' ... Anyway, on the Sunday we watched the Woodshed Band again because they were so good, and Les Barker was very funny, even if his poetry is pure doggerel. But then, who am I to  talk? Beckleberry were a revelation too; they're still young, but I hope  they stay together.

Anyway, the Festival proved more enjoyable than the World Cup Final when  we got back, by some distance as it turned out. I just wanted to say as  well that it's incredibly well organised. It's the only event of its  type I've ever been to where people always arrive on stage at the time  they're supposed to. Please pass on my thanks to all the organisers (and  take a bow ... or even a curtsy)."
