Many folk on Blue Sky are artistes, musicians, and soloists. I wanted to share this beautiful flute piece from Debussy's Arabesque No. 1 with accompaniment. Slightly rushed as I had a few minutes left in a rehearsal room. I wish you all the best in your goals. Earnest thanks to my tutors.

Watched, 'So Long at the Fair,' (1950). Don't miss it! Currently on You Tube and TPTV. Starring Dirk Bogarde and Jean Simmons. Compelling drama set in La Belle Epoche Paris. Develops into a detective drama where Dirk Bogarde is a 'Simon Templar' style character.Beautiful costumes and taut direction

I count it a great honour and privilege that two of the children's books I have written are available to loan at the Gateshead Central Library, from the children's fiction section. For authors, scholars and artistes who have published, or looking to publish, I wish you well

A lovely gesture that both Wimbledon Champions Sinner and Voskova complimented the work of the ball-girls and ball-boys, and the Wimbledon team. What a Tennis Final of great camaraderie.!

Currently, I am studying in a University Library. Lovely to see so many parents and their sons/daughters with them on an Open Day here, accompanied by Student Ambassadors. If folk have the opportunity to study for a Degree, just go for it. An enriching experience leading to a Qualification.

One is playing two Flute solos with a piano accompaniment this evening within a Concert programme. 'Debussy's Arabesque No. 1'' and the 'Largo from Vivaldi's Concerto RV443. 'The Vivaldi concerto I have chosen was composed for recorder, but it also sounds so delightful played on Flute.

Thankyou to Blackwell's Bookshop for the opportunity for my brand new children's book to be delivered to Hong Kong. I hope the children, or even people of all ages enjoy reading it. It's fun and adventure. Watch out for Lord Valiant's dynamo-powered Hansom Cab, and his electro-magnetic cane.

Something rather large is coming 👀 I’m not allowed to tell you what it is yet! But if you enjoy a good story (especially one involving kings, queens, and a few surprises), keep an eye out tomorrow. For now: 👑 If you had to pick one monarch to spend a day with, who would it be, and why?
