We had 17 poets and audience members last night, including the fantastic (and very brave to get up in front of us lot) new-comer James.

Feedback recieved on the night:

Good Points: Great poetry and atmosphere, great poems, lovely atmosphere, friendly and good poems, good fun, fun and variety, cracking night, great night, well done very enjoyable, good, fab cakes, fun and thoughtful what more do we need?

Areas For Improvemet: None, none, that Blackburn and his tousled hair, nice warm fire, longer break I'm busting for the loo, none.

I'm sure I can twist Mr Blackburn's arm into giving a longer break and don't forget noone minds if you leave during an intro and enter during an applause, as long as you don't interrupt a performer.

Gemma, always read your little Middleton feedback postings but rarely comment. I suspect many others do also (Hopefully like my new members postings on here). Hope you enjoyed the BW in Hebden. Win :-)
