I may be getting old - possibly getting boring - but I do take exception to the remark that I drink very little. Please be kind enough to be more careful with your stereotypes.

And it is great to see young people getting their skills honed at sessions and fringe events as people are suggesting. And then.............? Surely at least some of them would want to appear on a stage in front of a bigger audience??

And I am happy to go along with people who suggest that the sessions at Bromayrd and Warwick are more widespread than I saw. But am I correct also in suggesting that these would be mainly season ticket holders, or people from the nearby area because camping at both those festivals is limited to season ticket holders?
