Current events at DMH.........

ok. some of you may well have noticed recent articles concerning Richard Haswell and Summer Sundae in the Leicester Mercury. certainly quite a few of you have asked us what we know.

The answer is no more than you. We don't have any further knowledge than what we've read in the Mercury also. We would like to say we are very very concerned over the suspension of Richard Haswell.

We only hope this is not a scenario where certain people are engineering a situation to remove the festivals.

Clearly we cannot run a summer sundae fringe festival, without having a main summer sundae weekender to provide warm up parties for. And, there will be no summer sundae without Richard Haswell.

Should a worst case scenario of festival cancellation occur. Then we'll happily begin a nightmare press situtation for Leicester City Council and scream our unhappiness from the rooftops, at the possibility that we lose our charity fundraising, arts showcasing festival. We've worked for 4 years to get where we are, and we'll be very very unhappy to lose it.

And to remind Leicester City Council, we alone sold 2,200 tickets to Summer Sundae Fringe Thursday tickets on Thursday 13th August 2009. That included an awful lot of people currently on the Leicester City electoral roll.......and the main pineapster site gets 25,000 hits a month.

just saying like.....
