I dunno about this alienated and disposessed bit really, people ought to come to these things just cause it should be fairly obvious there's a really nice bunch of people out there. I'm always wary of this alienated bit cause it's really a load of bollocks, everyone's alienated as much as the next person - or no-one. Yet again it singles a certain group of people off (essentially the people who explicitly feel like they are for whatever reason - and decide to try and show it). I don't particularly feel part of this group myself even although I meet all these people and have a great time.

Fair point. I agree. I wasn't trying to say that all B&S fans are dispossed/alienated/disfuntional people(far from it, most of the listees I've met so far seem almost supernaturaly sorted.) just that anyone who does feel intimidated about meeting us shouldn't because I'm guessing that we're all pretty friendly, accepting people. I certainly don't consider myself a "stereotypical" B&S fan, my musical tastes are pretty eclectic and I certainly don't just sit under trees reading poetry and stuff....... Oh bugger it. Everybody just turn up. You know you want to. Stay lucky, Roryxxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
