We've been to the Cambridge Folk Festival
just once and to see French Canadian band
La Bottine Souriante. It struck us that many of the
bands didn't seem that folkie. We might have put
Ciderhouse Rebellion in the same bag when they
played the Wingfield
Barns Friday week but regrettably
CANCELLED.

We encountered in the early hours
The Outrun read on BBC radio by the lovely
voice of Tracy Wiles. We then read Amy Liptrot's autobiography of alcoholism, wild
swimming and Scottish islands. The memories
are sufficiently sweet we didn't want to spoil them by seeing an unsatisfactory film but Mark Kermode's
review has moved us to see it
@
Film@Fram Wednesday.

That Sinking Feeling (the prequel to
