Coming to Willie Week?

Post by cocusflute »

I have a tight dry cottage -- yes, the famous one -- twelve miles from MM. People are welcome to use it. No furnishing so you'll need a sleeping bag. We have pillows enough to lend you. I can borrow a mattress or several for that matter. Water is just outside. No facilities except a solid fuel stove and a one burner gas camping cooker. And some mugs. The fee will be €25 for the week and I only charge so that I can buy a chemical toilet for the place. I'll put a big bucket inside for big stuff and take care of emptying it, and a jug for pee. Primitive but totally safe during the day. Lockable if you wish but we are in a farming community, very private and the farmer down the lane keeps a sharp eye on who goes in and out. We can organize sessions at the local one mile down the road. For pictures and details write me at cocusflute@yahoodotspamcom or email through C&F.
The struggle in Palestine is an American war, waged from Israel, America's most heavily armed foreign base and client state. We don't think of the war in such terms. Its assigned role has been clear: the destruction of Arab culture and nationalism.

Cocus, it sounds primitively charming, great fun and sort of unique experience. I'd like to join to the list, but it's hard to arrange dates at work.

But most of all, it's a generous, friendly offer. Thanks

Tell us something.: Just updating my profile after 16+ years of C&F membership. Sold most of my flutes, play the ones I still own and occasionally still enjoy coming here and read about flute related subjects.

Hmm, seems like Cocus' dry cottage offer is turning into a Willy Week Pissing Contest :party:

I can pee on a jug that is sat on the highest shelf. But probably not in it.
Though my aim is to please.
Mary, I'll have a bucket for #1. And a bigger one for #2.

Using your flute(s) as an extension is cheating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Even if it is just an alternative to the time-honoured rain-barrel method of getting a dry old flute to seal up.)

Seriously though, it's a wonderful offer - I wish I could take it up, but Willy Week always falls in school term time, and though not a teacher, my work is tied to school terms and it is very awkward to take time off at all outside school hols, let alone for a whole week! I'll just have to dream.....

Tell us something.: I play the first flute Jon Cochran ever made but haven't been very active on the board the last 9-10 years. Life happens I guess...I owned a keyed M&E flute for a while and I kind of miss it.

Well, since it's of no use to her I guess it won't be Hurry the Jug, will it?

I've heard of The Jug of Slugs - local humourous :lol: nickname for that fine Scots jig, The Jig of Slurs - but NOT The Jug of Pee!

Of course, if you get drunk enough to slur, pee in a jug and then put it outside, especially in a dank Celtic country, by morning it'll probably be full of drowned/drunk slugs.....! :o Are we on to something here?

Harry's contribution would have to be something like The Endless Stream or The Jet

Whistlin' Dixie's would be Mind the Nettles! or The Cheek of It.

Collectively for Cocusflute's prospective guests, it would have to be The Jug Band.

And all this in Willie Week!

With a touch less levity, there really IS a Welsh jig entitled Piso ar y Gwair, which translates as "Piss on the Grass" (I think there's a similarly titled English version too.)
