The first week in August I go to Sidmouth, Devon - where there is a Folk festival each year.

I am quite a fixture, if not a feature, now as I have been going there for a long time.

I take my guitar and drum, and sing and play happily all week.

They do shape note singing in the parish church each day, and I try to fit that in as it is good for my ability to read music.

I usually sing the alto line in the 'Sacred Harp' book - so that is how I have added myself to the poll.

Back in the days when I did readings in church I was forbidden to use the King James version of the bible - it causes me to drop into my broad Yorkshire accent, which the southern folk could not understand - so I had to use the modern one which is much less poetic.
