I have just returned from my first visit to a Folk Festival.
From the colourful opening ceremony in Fishguard's town square to the fun of the finale, the Fishguard Folk Festival was a joyous and vibrant celebration
of folk music set against the backcloth of an historical and picturesque town. 
Joining in when I could added to my enjoyment: it's in my diary for next year. Make sure you put it in yours - it's well worth a visit.  Elizabeth Baines
