Walking ain't dancing
Gordon Potts
Walking ain't dancing. It's just travelling thro' the figures, unless you're
someone like Nibs Matthews or MJ Searle who really can walk & dance. It is
ever the way of the incompetent to refer to anything they can't be bothered
to learn to do as old fashioned. Just because something is a bit hard
doesn't mean it's not welcoming. It means that if you value it, you put the
work in. Most worthwhile things are a bit hard. It's what saves them from
being bland. Learning regional styles is difficult. Should the Northumbrians
abandon the rant step to be "welcoming" If so, your welcome to it. You can
have a mcdonalds afterwards, too.
