I could top your experience to a considerable degree with my experiences in performing in fundraisers for CND... but we have already had thread-drift into digital tuners so I won't.

Actually, it feels like we are getting a rounded view of the strengths and weaknesses of Ewan's personality; it is most unlike a Mudcat/McColl thread - no rudeness, no hoary old pro/anti arguments being dragged out of the cupboards. Most unusual! The seventh post said let's try to remember the living, breathing chap. and do you know? That seems to be happening.
