As I am getting increasingly tired of pointing out Roger - the point is not about regulated entertainment but that the landlord has asked for no publicity.

Others may not be aware that you have also pointed out to me that this 'no publicity/advertising' was also one condition imposed by the local authority for seemingly NOT considering the event to be Regulated Entertainment and insisting on the required licensing being obtained.

You are well aware of why I consider the circumstances of the licensing of this particular event to be the result of unique circumstances and you are well aware I believe that the licensing of it could be ultra vires.

How can the licensing of the event be ultra vires? It is not licensed and seemingly the local authority somehow consider that it is not required to be - until next year when then they most probably will.

So much for these events being free from exactly the same threats posed to social music making gatherings everywhere else in England and Wales.
