And another thing. No local paper would dare publish anything critical of local 'festivals'You will recall what happened to the editor of the Southern Reporter when his organ implied that the participants in common ridings, Reiver revivals, Wynsome Maydes hand ba'contests etc etc should grow up and see something of that wide world beyond the Borders.
