To be fair to Robin, is probably my own previous comments in this thread that have created thoughts of racism. I stand by those previous comments as I wasn't suggesting there was racism, and I clearly stated it could be interpreted as that. That said I do regret saying what I did, as I could have kept my big mouth shut. I wouldn't want to offend anyone and can now with the wonder of hindsight absolutely see how it could do so, particularly organisers (whom I will always show gratefulness and appreciation for) which Andy H touched on. So for that reason I would like to acknowledge I detract those comments, I would delete them, but I have said them afterall and they have been referenced indirectly now.
And back to what I think is the main subject in hand, I haven't even been to Blackpool Congress as it happens and was making observation from information given. It was one of two tournaments I had previously identified as being a good down south visit (the other being Scarborough) and I am not put off myself and intend to sample the Blackpool experience first hand for myself next year.
