No problem Ed, but I suspect you are missing the point.

There are some important folk awards, coming up and there are four nominations for the traditional track. At this time of the year I would like to see the four nominees get reasonably equal air-time on the only Radio 2 programme that plays this sort of music. One hour per week.

Once the awards are over I couldn't give a monkey's how much air-time Seth Lakeman gets on whatever programme that plays his music, and good luck to him. I have said many times that I think he is a talented lad, I have spent time with him and like him a lot. I wish him everything he wishes himself.

And less of the codger, I accept the old!!
