Whitby Walking Weekend

Off to Whitby with the Harrogate Short Walks group. I stayed in Aislaby just outside on a peaceful CL called Abbey View.


Two short walks, one to Saltwick Bay and the other along the beach to Sandsend.

Shrewsbury 2017

Another great weekend, highlights were:

• La Machine
• Conservatoire Folk Ensemble
• Greg Russell
• Loudoun Wainwright 
• Rheingan Sisters
• Sarah Jarosz

After waiting to see the Unthanks for ages, I found them a bit dreary, similarly Coven were a political harangue so I left them both.

Had a dance at a ceilidh with a beardy man in pink trousers.

West Wales

A lovely short break in Pembs/Ceredigion, staying at Marloes and New Quay, both new places to me. See Wales trips
