And today I am on the second of four stages from Norwich to Taunton, Devon to sing for the folks at the Fivehead Folk Nights. Although with the rail works going on my first leg of travel, my first, first class seat was, shall we say, a little less than desirable.

Deep Water Hello Folks, it has been quite some time since my first two posts on BlueSky. There has been much going on behind the scenes that have caused me to take a little over a year sabbatical from social media. My apologies to you all, but it was necessary to do so. To be continued…

Hello Folks! A quick thank you to those of you who have signed up to follow me. I'm still trying to learn the basic 'ins and outs' here but I'm hoping things will fall into place very soon. I shall return in a few days and will hopefully have a better 'handle' on things. Safely as you go! ~ Dan
