No, I haven't any "funny stories" about mobility scooters. My understanding of that particular remark is that the Ed found it mildly funny and not as gratuitously offensive as most of the rest of the stuff flying from madlizziecornish's mouth as Sidmouth Folk Week was attempting a takeover from the International Festival in 2005.   It does not, however, merit repetition.

What I am wondering though is how exactly will the current Sidmouth organising committee feel about being likened to the 3rd Reich.
