Belinda Kempster & Fran Foote: The Goose Is Out! The Ivy House,40 Stuart Road SE15 3BE. Thursday 14 November. ?8 on the door. Floorpsots welcome.


Sadly, due to circumstances beyond his control, Thom Ashworth, our original booking, has had to cancel tonight.


But we are so delighted to have been able to book Belinda and Fran instead at quite short notice, as they were already on our shortlist for next year!


Many of you will already know Fran Foote from Stick in the Wheel. Belinda Kempster is her mother.


They are both from Essex, sharing songs and singing together without frills or fuss.


Belinda began singing traditional songs in the 60s and has always preferred English country songs. Their family has a history of farming and working on the land, and their songs come from the work and recreation of that way of life.


Belinda and her husband John met in a folk club and Fran grew up immersed in the local folk scene, learning songs from her parents from a very young age.


Belinda & Fran

    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
