Arrived at Spud Murphys Fri to the warmest welcome and was so honoured to meet people like Jim Brown, Terry Reagan, Gary Lowe,Marty Boyce, Zondrae, King Peter Mace 
and to catch up again with Frank Daniels, John Peel, Tom McIlveen and Will and his lovely wife Mary. 
Then off to Franks tribute, 
back to an enjoyable nights entertainment from some very talented poets[I've adopted Gary Lowe as my new "Dad"] 
thoroughly enjoyed the singalong. Poets breakfast early sat then off to the competition, sooo impressed with the talent on show saturday. For a novice like me there was so much to take in and learn and the feedback from the pros was so helpful. Another BIG night sat night-sun morning, went to bed when the Roosters started crowing 
[ I had to stay up to keep an eye on Heather ]Poets breakfast sun, then off to the club for more fun with the Irish Band, even did a solo of "Galway Bay" 
with the band. Then back to a wonderful night of stories and poetry from Gary Lowe[that man is incredible]Thank you everyone for an enjoyable weekend, we have already booked our bed for next year. Congratulations to all the winners.
Wonderful to have Heather staying with us tonight, she is the most Bonza Girl!!
Cheers Everyone
