I have removed all posts on our facebook page that display Steve's garden.
All of them from Phil The Bus.
He has seen the posting you did on the DJ Channel Tony, although not
acknowledged it.

Totally agree Tony. I have A few of The Happy Maureens coming in on Saturday
afternoon although one of these is Alli who Steve knows helps me, but I
always intended to inform him directly about this in advance.
My other big concern is that Phil The Bus and a few others have taken to
taking lots of photos of himself and guests around Steve's garden and
posting them on facebook. Whilst Steve's garden is very unusual and amazing,
I don't think its right that we should be displaying his garden (which he
may want to keep discreet) for the world to see because it is a cool
backdrop for a DJ.
I think everyone who this applies to is on facebook DJ Channel Tony.

Morning all,
O.K. So we potentially have a problem with our Host, Steve.
He has made it known to us that there are too many people arriving at
the Studio that he has not been made aware of, while he doesnt have a
huge problem with this, his Wife, who apparently isnt a huge fan of
Rock, and also works very long shifts, is getting anxious about random
people milling around the Garden in and out of the studio.
I dont want to go into long details about the ins and outs of this, but,
we MUST take steps to stop this now, before it becomes a big issue and
we arent invited back next year.
I will also be sending a message to the Facebook DJ group (Is everyone
on that platform Sarah? apart from Simon...) about this, but we will
need to enforce a strict blanket ban on ANY and ALL guests, UNLESS there
is a justification for them being there..
Currently, I can only think of Specific helpers for Request shows, St
Michaels Hospice guests, the Odd band leader on a Sunday night...
but this shouldnt extend to friends, family or anyone a DJ thinks might
be "good fun" to be in the studio with.
The Garden must also be off limits to everyone that does go to the
Studio, they are either In the studio, or leaving the Studio. Its only
a matter of time before photos and other facebook posts that we have
seen gives our location away, and then we are in bigger trouble....
Anyone that would like a Guest in the Studio NEEDS to contact either
myself or Nick in advance, who will, in turn confirm this with Steve,
our Host, and he may well say No, and we HAVE to respect this.
This may also be an issue on the final night as well, there are usually
lots of people in the Studio at various times, but I think this should
ONLY be the outgoing, and incoming DJ for the 1 hour slots (or whatever
gets decided...) We really cant be using the Studio as a party venue,
thats in the Angling Club...
Sorry if this sounds a bit drastic, but it IS Steve's house, we ARE his
guests, and this IS the Golden goose of a location, so lets not muck it
up in the first year...
Happy to chat about it to anyone....
Keep rocking..
Tony Bell
