GUEST,reggie miles Lincoln Folk Club 12th July (24) RE: Lincoln Folk Club 12th July 23 Aug 04


No offense Gaucho, but this post initially sounds like an invitation to the planet at large, but you neglected to include just exactly where this club is located. However, after reading the posts I'm certain you intended this notice for a circle of friends that you knew frequented this forum from your particular area. I'm sure this oversight was unintentional on your part. Which leads, if you will indulge me, to this thread creep.

I have read any number of threads that at first looked as though they may include information about matters closer to my locale only to discover at some later point that the thread in question was intended for a group of folks from a completely different area of the world. Of course, many times it is quite obvious by the names of places mentioned in these posts, even without an official address, that they're speaking about a festival, event or pub located on some far flung island or another. My question is this, is there some way that we can flag posts, perhaps using a national flag of origin of the person who is posting, to quickly identify the country where the post originated? It would be an easy way for those who hail from a particular region of the planet to identify posts from those who may live close by and for those who wish to discuss local matters to easily locate threads representing such.

Being limited by my own constraints to only a relatively small geographic region of the planet, I do at times enjoy reading the posts of those who inhabit other places. It's a particular treat as well to hear folks perform during a Paltalk session from other countries.

Where ever this club is, it sounds like a good time was had by all.
