THE fourth Ingleton Folk Weekend kicks off today (Friday). If you didn't manage to get tickets for Ralph McTell or Show of Hands, don't panic, as everything else on the three-day event is free of charge with no tickets required. Bands will be appearing throughout the weekend at various venues in and around the village. Street artists and morris dancers will be adding to the festivities on Saturday afternoon while budding musicians can be kept busy with workshops, or take part in the new Comic Song Competition, which offers cash prizes. More information can be found on www.ingletonfolk.co.uk and programmes are available from the local Tourist Information Centre, tel 015242-41049.
