I was answering a question put by a contributor about reintroducing Arena concerts and an international element. That would be the scenario to do so. Isn't it a tad selfish to care little whether this ever happens just because you and your mates spend all your time in the pub anyway? Aren't you supposed to have the festival's future at heart? Doesn't sound like it.

Stating the bleedin' obvious is not ranting. It is stating the bleedin' obvious. Ridiculous, hostile responses which have no bearing on aforegoing statements might, however be considered as such. 'The rest of us' is no homogenous mass. Odd that you disregard everyone else whose view of recent Sidmouth history is as lukewarm as mine. Do you know that they're all bigger than me, by any chance?

And madlizzie's inane behaviour is far from civilised and merits an uncivilised solution. Or give her the funding application to do. It'll be so crazed it might even succeed.
