 Ed Strong

with their six string bass

Andria Antoniou

and Wills Morgan as our host (as always).

The Room in the Wood

 performing an acoustic set

in the local Rough Trade. 

Not my kind of music

but hey, they were playing on my way to Tate, so, why not, just for a change...

Grace Petrie

sung her protest (and other) songs on a 1930s Dutch barge almost opposite the House of Commons.

I spent a lazy Monday evening

with some Fierce Flowers. 

It was the Harrison's all day festival again

This time with Andy Skellam 

 Striking Clock

Stanlaey

the always lovely and entertaining Garance 

who was joined on stage by Dave

and the rather amazing Jally Bebba Susso, who is the 74th generation of Kora players in his family. 

700.000 of us were marching (which is roughly how many views my blog has had over the years)

(well, I say marching, but some just came along for the ride)

and after the march I went deep into East London, to learn about the opium trade (and tea obviously)

Chartwell

where Churchill took it easy. 

A day trip

 to Canterbury

and Whitstable. 

The Geese

Easy Saturday afternoon at Acklam Village

with Zebrah 

 Šarka Elias

 Learn to Swim

and of course our wonderful host Wills Morgan

Michele had to do it on her own tonight

as Romeo was locked in a basement far away recording some new tracks,

but she got us Roisin McNeill

and of course Michele played a set 

 and then James Jackman and the Blue Moon brought the evening to an end 

but at the very end everybody joined in.
