After spending three weeks in England, I can report that English pub sings are alive, well, and delightful. The incident at Greenwich is unfortunate, but it may give the PEL opponents the publicity they need.

Even if the PEL's continue, 300 quid for 104 sessions doesn't seem like a lot of money.

I did notice that some pubs don't welcome singers, and I suppose that's the way it should be. In one pub in Whitby, I mentioned that I was a singer, and the guy next to me politely pointed out the "no singing, no dancing" sign above me.

I just wish Shambles would figure out he should post his messages just once, instead of his habit of posting each message in three separate threads. That sort of practice is far worse for his cause than the Greenwich incident. Spam, even in the name of a worthy cause, is still Spam. That is my personal opinion, and not an official statement of Mudcat. I believe I am entitled to an opinion.
