And still you say you can't offer me what I require - traditional and traditionally based songs sung to a reasonable standard - or so you tell me - hmm, have to think about that one.

I thnk I could probably see you in court for that one but as proof of the fact that you don't even bother to read what I say it's pretty impressive. It's bad enough that you criticize a club that you have never been to but to accuse me of trashing the club that I help run is well out of order.

To avoid any further doubt -

At the Lewes Saturday Folk Club you can hear traditional and traditionally based songs sung to a reasonable and often high standard every week. This also true of other clubs that I know.

Sorry Bryan; am not going to become entangled in one of your equally interminable spirals.

Jim you have a persistent habit of pissing on the efforts of UK folk club organisers in general and me in particular. ("crass", "dumbing down", "promoting crap standards", comparing me to Goebbels, little things like that.) I think I have a right to answer back.
