Better minds than mine can work out the irony of the place our kids go for their swimming lessons using AI for the teachers' profile pics (possibly at the cost of one swimming pool's worth of water per pic).

Sad to hear that the Curzon in Sheffield in closing. I'm not surprised though. The Showroom will always get the loyal art house crowd due to being independent, and the Light is much nicer (and takes surprising risks in the films they show for a chain). Always a shame when a cinema closes though.

I'm fortunate that my local #Parkrun is in an incongruously flat part of Sheffield - none of the seven hills here. Still murder in the broiling heat today, though. Btw, if the Halifax visit is including the Piece Hall tomorrow night, I'll be in the hundred and somethingth row along from you :-)

No problems at all! A genuine pleasure to include your track. Can't be beyond the wit of me to get up the motorway to a local gig of yours, though if you're planning to play Sheffield some time soon I'd be all over that :-)
