Yes, and you know what, I agree that there are a 101 great things that this money can be spent on. But right here, right now I was asked to get some funding for this and I got it. I've mentioned many times on this forum that I have got funding for other (more mainstream) local events and my aim with all the groups that I work with is to put on a varied programme of things for the town. Varied means that different things appeal to different people - not just you!
