Thread Name: Sidmouth Winter Reunion 2009
Subject: RE: Sidmouth Winter Reunion 2009
Well Rosie, as you can see, I'm well into "other things to do in Sidders" by now (or, as I remarked earlier, one singaround does not a festival make). I also noted, much higher up, that the all too common Mudcat trait of failing (or refusing) to read the thread was in full flow early on, with the oneupmanship of "my session's better than yours" getting under way with sing-song adherants abusing the musos and calling them a "clique".

When I joined in (which I can if I want to when I have things which were more on-topic than most to say), I wasn't at any point commenting on what occurs in the Anchor (as someone called Tattie Bogle - good grief - is alleging) but on an unpleasant phenomenon at another pub many miles away where I actually was exactly a week ago, and pondering on the connection between Anchorite rejection of the importance of provenance or even a smattering of academic attribution and this GEFF who was creating havoc at the Exmouth.

Never mentioned the OP (far less launch a "personal attack"). I don't know who it is, except that it's apparently not a bloke. Seems to harbour an affliction of cap-fitting syndrome.

However, did I ever tell you about the first time I stayed in Sidford and got lost on the way back? Ah, perhaps I won't . . .
