But what more would you have us do Diane?
.....
So where would you have us go?

I think, Dave, that she would have us go away because we don't fit her model of the parlous state of folk music. The idea of a successful folk club where the organisers, audience, floor singers and booked artists all thoroughly enjoy themselves pains her enormously. She tries to get round it by claiming that we are unique and all other folk clubs in the land are populated by GEFFs and snigger-snoggers. Since she never actually goes to a folk club, it's hard to see how she knows this.

Actually, it doesn't matter in the slightest what she thinks because nobody takes her seriously. She's just a useful foil to bounce ideas off.

Still musing over the idea that she doesn't tell other people what they should do.

By the way, Diane, snails are gastropods not crustaceans.
