Come to the Allotment #3: Caitlin Rose, Tristram, Maryland and FREE CAKE

28 November 2009
By Lynn Roberts

FFS and Anika in London are delighted to announce our third show at the Betsey Trotwood.

The Allotment #3 will feature highly exciting Nashville singer Caitlin Rose, the lovely Tristram and London-based troubador Maryland.

Tickets are £5 in advance from We Got Tickets or £6 on the door. And as always there’ll be free For Folk’s Cakes (including everyone’s favourite cholesterol-booster, tiffin) and Anika in Fruit (TBC). Check out pictures of previous Allotment nights here.

Anika would like to persuade you to come through the medium of rhyme.

She says: “A poem written whilst thinking about writing a poem whilst writing a poem whilst debating whether to write a poem or just not write a poem then deciding to write a poem, by Anika Mottershaw.

“Cometh and eat cake,
Like water in a lake,
With Captain Jake,
Do it for cake’s sake,
The cake is NOT fake,
It’s almost too much to take,
O! The lovely cake.”

Words: Lynn Roberts (apart from that weird bit by Anika)
