"you are devoid of argument jim "
You haave to be joking Al - you have had masses of argument from me on at leas two threads we have been involved in recently
You may not accept any of what I have had to say, but you cannot possibly claim that I haven't said anything
I don't care what you do - it doesn't impress me greatly, but that's my problem.
What concerns me here is your and Muskett's BEHAVIOUR.
Your attitude towards fellow performers and enthusiasts I find totally unacceptable with your attempts to denigrate by presenting a dishonest picture of what they do - "fishermen's smocks" my arse - whatever their shortcomings, that's about as far from what the Birmingham crowd as you can get!
Muskett appears to be on another planet altogether with his indifference/contempt for what some of us have been involved in for most of our lives and his insulting behaviour of our late benefactors.
Even now you are referring to the music of working people as "total bollocks" - fine, 'cha-cun à son goût', as the saying goes.
I'm off to Dublin for some singing and a few good films - leave you and yours to it for a few days.
