Captain Birdseye

this is a completely irrelevant comment,no one suggested that attending your workshops were a pre condition for doing a floor spot.

You appeared to be linking our workshop series to the "problem" of persistently bad singers. Jim most certainly has suggested that such performers be required to accept tuition or attend workshops before being allowed to sing again.

however you have a set up that many other clubs might be jealous of,the opportunity for folk club members to improve.

Thank you. Perhaps you understand why I am a little peeved to be told that our policy is crass and that we are championing crap singing.
