"
Away from work, I spent two days this weekend at Banbury Canalside
Folk Festival...... There was a real wide variety of stuff on and
I saw about a dozen acts. Every act I saw was excellent - there
wasn't a duff one among them..... Between acts there was plenty
going on outside the venue and the weather was good so everyone
could sit in the sunshine and have a drink and a natter. All in
all, I had a really great weekend so well done Derek and Mary for
putting on such a great little festival" - Posted by Dave
Pegg on Fairport Convention's official website after the 2006
festival.
"Dear

will be many who will be looking forward to next year's
festival" - Letter from Tony Baldry MP following 2005
