Dave - thanks for encouraging me (and Vectis) to get me a booking. But when I've been booked at Seaford, I've taken the day off work, because singing is an escape from my day job, not the day job. I regard bookings as a privilege and a treat, that I don't want to arrive at when I'm frazzled from the day job! Since I started going to Whitby as well as Sidmouth festival, I have to think very carefully about taking time off work for other sings and festivals...

(Valmai - this is probably thread creep, sorry!)
