G'day Marty

I am considering coming across to Bungendore, so I might see you and some of the others mentioned there.

Regards

Sorry folks,

I have not been to Bungindor Muster. Nor do we plan it on our list this year. We have just completed Illawarra and I am on the programme for Cobargo Festival at the end of February. Then the next one for us is the National Festival. I don't venture away from Wollongong on my own and I am pushing things as it is with Wayne, to get him to as many turn outs as I do already.

I must look up Majors Creek it is on this year and I have not applied yet. It is in November. We used to go to Gundagi but now can't get accommodation in town. Also I much prefer the festivals where you camp on the site at the local oval. There is too much walking about at Gundagi because the festival is in and around the town and some of the venues are quite a distance apart.

Now let me count; Ilawarra, Cobargo, National, Snowy Mountains, Kangaroo Valley, Majors Creek .. that is about it for us this year. We also plan a winter escape to the north somewhere, between the Snowy Festival (June) and Kangaroo Valley (late October). We might have a look at Crookwell, depending when it is on and if we can get accommodation nearby.

and most likely,
a moments silence or a short tribute to our mate, David Meyers. Wish I could be there.

Oh! I forgot..... I am booked to do a couple at the Kangaroo Valley Markets on 19th February, so that definitely knocks any hope of getting to Bungindore this year.

Hey Marty I'm in the same boat as Kym a bit to far to travel and I work in a van park so not much time off. Would love to see some videos of poets performing if possible.

Cheers Bob.
