You'd be feeling grumpy if you'd just had your knee replaced. Still think your original post was ill-mannered and opportunistic, though. Would you really have welcomed it if I tried to encourage people to desert your session and come to ours? Would have PM'd you instead of going public, only you've chosen to post as a guest.

Les: I'd like to know too. As a means of publicising the session and the music (because we're very keen on getting new people involved in the music) it's great and because we're running it like a mini session there's little rehearsal time and pressure. But the "audience" like the informality as well.

Cheers,

Chris
