Sad, but a highly accurate summarization of the UK country & western
circuit. It took my family a good few years to come to the conclusion that
if they say that then you must be *really* good. I know lovely people that
frequent these clubs and so I don't want to generalize too much, but, well,
in general, these people are totally mad. Really, they are.

I hope you don't think too badly of us Brits. We're not all like that,
