Haven’t seen this usual topic yet for Cropredy 2018 so would be interesting to see if any ‘famous’ people were attracted to come this year. Mind you I can never recognise anybody so they could be standing right next to me and I wouldn’t realise who they were  |

I'm sure I saw Judy walking around the field on Saturday, and also had a chat with Ashley at the Talking Elephant stall.

I was usually making my way to the ice cream van at the top of the field with that David Longdon in tow |

Just a stroll from his house. Really? Moved to Cropredy after playing the festival. When we phoned up the owner of Bridge Meadow last year to give us a tow with his tractor he was actually talking to joe. |

I suppose R. McTell doesn't count. It would be more to the point to say "occasions when I went to Cropredy and didn't see Ralph McTell".

Ah ha! The annual Planty urban myth! Edit: I stand corrected now I have read Tasha’s post! ( but usually, every year someone says they heard Planty was there even tho’ noone saw him)  |

Johnny Walker was there cos on his radio show he mentioned being in Peggy's company backstage then heading off to buy a coffee and sugary pancake when he bumped in to Al, shook his hand and left him looking at a sticky palm!! |
