John Adams, yes I am happy to give comhaltas my subs[Although i am still critical of them.]I dont wish to tell efdss members how to spend their money , I was trying to answer your question, perhaps you would answer mine, how much does efdss recieve from the sports council,and how does that compare to the money spent by efdss on folk song.
the EFDSS is supposed to be promoting english folk dance and international folk song,and in my opinion could improve what its doing , you asked me my opinion ,I gave it.,if you dont like it ok but I am not telling efdss members how their money should be spent, You need to ask yourself why ex members, are ex members.
knowing you as a performer who is interested in song ,i am sure your doing your best to improve things,all i am trying to do is get a discussion going, out of which improvements can be made, I hope MY criticism is constructive.DickMiles
