Annap, would rather have people be straightforward in saying what's comfortable for them. No, you're not being the least bit "mean". I'm glad I asked rather than assuming it would be OK.

I look forward to coming another time and I wish you all loads of fun. The pics from other gatherings look great.

This will give me all the more time to come up with some really good songs for another time...
