Dave >>Dunno which Dave you are addressing but this one is sorry to hear that your venue is to close. << It was you. I just find it incredible that even breaking the job down into smaller parts, nobody offers to takeover. Thanks for your nice comments.
Diane >>And it's happening, though obviously not yet in 'backwoodsland'. << I assume based on past comments that you are referring to Lincolnshire. If so, one of the problems that Lincolnshire suffers from is density of population, and we have to travel a lot of miles to support our live venues. Its not the cost of paying to get in up here, its the cost of petrol on very low wages, or as in many cases, no work.
