Yes it probably was the BBC's 'gig', so it was their largesse to distribute. Accepted, but none was forthcoming.

Just one thought: when Malcolm Taylor OBE (EFDSS Director of Library) gets requests from the BBC to do some vital part of research for some programme they have in mind, I feel it potential for pay back time. I fielded one call from Malcolm concerning a Sandy Toksvig programme based on Dungeness people and how they wanted 'traditional singers' for it. After a day wasted dashing round making calls and emails, we were rewarded by one self-penned song by Paul Sirman who runs the Orpington folk club. Maybe it's time to restore Test Match Special to its rightful slot - on Radio Three! This time on FM!!
