Completely same sentiments here. Dave and Robin, I really feel that it would actually make Joni's day if she heard your CD. Fingers crossed that it will happen soon!

There aren't many reports this time, I guess facebook has eaten some of them, but it's also because this was a fairly relaxed and low-key Jonifest, as you can see from the many beautiful photos that have been posted. There were lovely musical moments, both of singing together and of listening to performances by Chris, Les, Will, Strings, Lucy, and even Garret and John van Tiel. Oh, and by Anita who, together with Lieve and Steph, only joined us for the first day. But altogether this was more of a weekend of chilling out, going for long walks, stopping by the pub, sipping tea (and vodka). How do you review an afternoon trip to Stratford with John or a walk to Shipston (or wherever) with Mike, or meeting my favourite poster Catherine from Toronto, catching up with everyone on the first day...? Well the answer is that these things aren't really up for review, but I want to thank everyone for a great time, and of course Lucy more than anyone. Preparing events like these, and making it all seem so effortless, is one gigantic effort, no wonder it has been three years since the last time. Last time, I went home wanting to organize a Scandinavian fest. Nothing ever came of it, but I got inspired again this year - I'm thinking of somewhere in the woods of Sweden or by the Danish coast - perhaps we could rent a string of summerhouses and... and, and. I will get back to all of you if I come up with a nice plan. If anyone has any input, let me know! Love Benedicte (at the moment, a relatively unknown poster I guess) - -- *** bnw ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2011 #246 ********************************* ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here: mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe
