Hi Dave,
Your point is a fair one. As a small regional show it’s passable, but it is promoted as being much more than that – that’s what I object to x( . I’m sure that you can also empathise with me concerning my being angry on account of being barred

. That obviously makes me more critical than I might otherwise be.
As to commenting upon what I’ve not actually seen with my own eyes. I have pretty good first-hand sources. They’ve given me accounts as to who’s been there, how busy it was and what is was like in general terms. I believe that what I’ve said has been an accurate reflection of those reports.
As I said, I’ve overdone things in terms of the way I’ve expressed myself :} – I’m sorry if I’ve caused offence.
