Such a lovely evening. Chris Cleverley - what a brilliant musician and thoroughly nice bloke.

We need to rewild 30% of the planet to restore nature & protect our wildlife, but Britain is falling behind. So I've signed this new petition calling on one of our biggest landowners - the Church of England - to rewild its land. Join me? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

It’s really hard to be upbeat sometimes. Here’s our song inspired by the book by Auschwitz survivor, Eddi Jaku. In the aftermath he chose to be happy in order to honour those that didn’t survive. youtu.be/33quJtfWhQA?...

A bit late for #worldmenopauseday but here is our song about my experiences and Jim’s mid life crisis.
#menopauseawareness is really important, must be taught in schools. I am still embarrassed that I knew so little about what was happening to my own body.

Small crowd stand watching a musical duo perform in front of a white weatherboard fronted building under a sign reading Tenterden and District Museum
Musical duo perform in front of Tenterden museum
We spent a pleasant Saturday morning performing outside Tenterden Museum. Small town and village museums are brilliant resources that need to be celebrated.
That’s our final gig in the diary ‘til spring. Now: recording, writing, admin … and recharging

So good. What a huge loss :-(

Goodness me.
Thanks for sharing that. Absolutely beautiful song and beautiful video.
I’ve got to go and remove something from my eye x
Found a great home for this. A mate is starting a Subbuteo League at a local football club. I’d so love to see some of my old teams out again.
If that doesn’t happen a friend works with foster kids and be good for engaging with parents. I could eBay but it’s not all about money.
Feeling ridiculously smug after my dental hygienist telling me I’m doing a really good job with my hygiene. Like getting a gold star on the board at school.
I just wish it hadn’t taken me over 50 years to start looking after my mouth better.

Darn it! You just pipped me to it 😆

Sends something of a message. Let's do this (or rather, let's not do this)

I think it’s time to share this video again, our song, Kindness. Featuring wonderful friends and family, some sadly no longer with us.
Life is short, you never know what others are going through. Be kind.

It always feels like that doesn’t it Jonnie. It can be so disheartening. It’s often not a question of how ‘good’ we are, more about timing, numbers applying, social media following - a whole range of factors. You absolutely are more than ‘good enough’! Have faith brother x

Brilliant blue sky above a distant landscape view over wheat fields. Painted in acrylic and pastels by Josie Tipler
We’re almost back to 100%. Still coughing but our heads are back in order and we’re able to concentrate on admin, booking 2026 tours etc. A bracing walk up on the South Downs helped.
This is one of Josie’s paintings of a view from the Downs.

Amazingly @soundloungecio.bsky.social have raised nearly 300% of their target. That speaks volumes doesn’t it?

The incredible @soundloungecio.bsky.social have been very progressive in their attitude to the recent raising of flags in their area.
Their thanks?
Having every single window of the venue smashed.
Send them love and support this campaign
