Transfer of Wheatsheaf, South Petherton English folk music pub session to The Bell Inn, Ash, Martock Somerset

Martin Hughes has just emailed me to say that his excellent fortnightly English folk music pub sessions are no longer to be held at the Wheatsheaf in South Petherton, Somerset.

The new venue is to be at The Bell Inn in Ash, Martock, Somerset. As Martin says:

Hello Everyone,

Just a quick email to let you know that, despite the closure of the Wheatsheaf, we now have a new home at The Bell Inn in Ash. Sessions continue there fortnightly from Wednesday 21st January in the main bar (first bar you come to on entering the pub) starting at 8:30pm.

Please try to make it a good turnout so that we can give a good impression and demonstrate the versatility of our music and songs.

Also a big THANK YOU to Geoff Turnbull for successfully negotiating with the staff at The Bell to allow us to play.

See you on the 21st
The cost of using my camper-van has come down recently somewhat with the lower fuel prices so perhaps I'll be able to pay this nice session a visit.

As always, in case of last minute hitches or changes of plan, it is always advisable to check with venues before travelling.

The photo showing Martin above was taken during the Sidmouth Folk Week at one of the popular sessions he is involved in hosting at the Sidmouth Sailing and Sea Angling Club.

Bye for now

Rob
