SC ... best one of the lot, although I have to admit I quite like the idea of the one of being flat on one's back and singing from the floor in that position !!

Trust you to stir it up while being ever on the quest, Rosie [grins]
Pip ... re the "floor singers have to pay to get in" statement... that depends on the club. In the club I used to do floorspots in at first if you ended up with a spot (always two songs) you had your admission fee refunded. In some other clubs floorsingers get in for a reduced admission fee, and in yet others again you just get the immense privilege of being able to stand up and air your tonsils, and count yourself lucky to have achieved a spot.

In other words ... a bit of Heinz 57 varieties, I would have said.
