Welcome to this week’s Dreamers Newsletter. Thank you for the various kind messages in response to last week’s Newsletter when I wrote last week that a few of us had developed covid following the regular singers night at the Club on 3rd July. It transpired that almost all attendees came down with covid. Some of us are still testing positive, 10 days after the event. Whilst some of us were fortunate not to suffer very much by way of...

Thought to add to the last post that there will be a singers night/come all ye tonight at the Victoria Inn in place of the postponed Mike Silver event. We will be pleased to welcome all musicians, singers and poets to join us from 7.30pm.

Dreamers on Sunday night followed straight on from the June Cornish Zoom Folk Club the previous night, another busy session for our MCs, Malcolm and Hilary, doing a...

But great to see so many people in the streets and venues and to hear some great singing again. Well done to all and, especially, to the organisers. The Golowan Festival in...

Hello and welcome to this week’s Newsletter. A big week as we head into the Falmouth Shanty Festival this weekend. The forecast is distinctly variable as I write this so let’s hope it turns out fine.

The Groups Festival Parade is back again this year, scheduled for Saturday 18th June, starting at The...
