terribly sorry for putting on the "smiley, smiley voice and face" Kev.
So much for not making it personal.

And actually, If you can come on here and say negative things by way of attempting to draw attention to the problems you feel are faced by the festival organisers and attendees, then I more than have the right to challenge that point, and also to add my thoughts that perhaps solutions are being worked on, and would have been easier to have been worked on had you contacted the festival office during the festival last year, or indeed after the festival ended.

my response wasn't all smiley smiley - In fact i agree with you on several points - I only chose to highlight the issues faced by the festival in that you are suggesting improvements that might not be possible if the festival is to remain cost effective for the season ticket holders who return year on year.


I have no problem with you directing your views to the organisers, and agree that you should be given free reign to say whatever you wish - I just felt I should report my view of the festival to the wider public audience that you are targeting by writing on here - some of whom may have never tried to visit the festival and may be put off by your comments. A balanced blog is surely a better one?

All the best with going to all the other wonderful festivals in the country this year Kev - I hope you do enjoy them. I think you're going to miss a great year in Broadstairs, and will hopefully another year.

I do hope that others who read this are assured that Broadstairs Folk Week is planning to be great this year - and that I would encourage people to come and check it out and make up your own minds!
