Just a note to remind you that you are all invited to the 13th UK Sacred Harp Convention in the Mechanics Institute in Marsden West Yorkshire on 13th and 14th...
Chris I may have missed something in the pre-publicity but as most people will be coming by car (say 30-50 cars), it would be helpful to know where we should...
There is extensive on road parking in Marsden. The road from the Mechanics towards Huddersfield is the nearest and there are usually places there but we will...
Sofi Mogensen and I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday 13 September. How about the Friday night? Is there going to be singing in Oldham (or anywhere)?...

A belated thank you back - and to everyone who came. There were 11 of us, and I had a great time. Need to work out how to fit more seating into a relatively...

Thanks to everyone who came along last Saturday and made the visitation such a memorable day - even the weather was kind to us. The colleges were beautiful,...
Dear all, This is a plea for help. During most of the convention this weekend, we are obliged to keep the main door of the venue locked or manned (for the...
Dear Sharon, I have an alternative suggestion: Let us lock the doors so that we can all enjoy the singing, and post a sign on the door explaining that if...
Thanks, Michael, that's a good idea. What do other people think about this? I think I'd be inclined to man the door just for the first half hour on Sunday...
Personally I am not very happy about being inside a locked building - not very clever in the event of fire... I don't mind taking a turn on the door for half...
I'm not sure about this working. I have a phone that vibrates and I've missed many a message or call when there is noise and other things going on. If it is...
... and elsewhere at other times (see the bottom of this email). I've just been given a flyer: "Northern Harmony The thrilling world music choir from Vermont,...
Hi All Please remember that there are still some people who do not carry mobile phones with them all the time. Doorkeepers are best and I too, am prepared to...
Paul, Huh?? Even my 73-year-old parents have a mobile. I guess you are right taht there are people yet without mobiles, though truth be told I can only think...
I agree with Cath's point about not always being able to notice a phone vibrating in what will hopefully be a very noisy environment. I would personally prefer...

Thanks for all the input (directly to me and through the group). We will go with the person-at-the-door method (assuming there are enough volunteers). The...
Glad that's sorted. Lin James tells me she is also willing to do a stint on the door. And so am I (as I said earlier.) Benny On Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 9:28 AM,...
