Subject: RE: Unthanks et al. Why begrudge success?
Lets just forget it. You think your stuff, I'll think mine. We all have to take the world as we find it. I speak from what my considerable experience has taught me - your considerable experience has taught you something else.

As for the complaints about Tony and una doing your radio programme, you really should have informed Tony. he might have got something from it. At the time I knew I wasn't right for your show, and told him so.

Still i think that says a lot about how far adrift folk radio is from folk clubs. I'm usually considered acceptable or pt uppable with for one song at least, in most folk clubs these more tolerant times.

Lucy and her family, i know quite well. She came quite often to the folkclub in Spondon that Denise and i used to go to. In Derby, we all wish her well.

Christ i hate getting old, i'm not in Derby any more! But in general I wish all the players on the folk scene well.

Sorry Dave, i stick by my guns. No names, no packdrill. I am not going to discuss individuals and their careers
