@samsweeney.bsky.social thank you and the Remnant Kings for a great show at the beautiful Marine Theatre. And for your just a minute audition 🤣. Best of luck with the rest of the tour. See you in Poole in June!

I managed a nice walk on the beach, and took a couple of nice photos, if I say so myself!

Thank you @johnspiers.co.uk and @jonboden.bsky.social for a wonderful gig at @turnersims.bsky.social. After a bit of a rough week, you've made it all better.
Perfectly playing the "unplayable" Wittenham Clumps. Thinking about favourite Tayto flavour.

If you're thinking of going to Portsmouth Guildhall, they are waiving all their processing fees until Sunday as part of a black Friday sale!

@knightandspiers.bsky.social Thank you for a wonderful show at Salisbury Arts Centre. I think I smiled the whole way through! (Which is no mean feat). Good luck with the test of the tour, and see you next time!

@elizacarthy.bsky.social and @jonboden.bsky.social thank you for a wonderful show. And the warmest merchandise😁. Just what I needed after a couple of rough days. Happy Christmas and best of luck with the rest of the tour! 😍
Eliza reads from a completely genuine, not made up at all, book. A cute toy hippo at the front of the stage, with an out of focus decorated Christmas tree in the background. Merchandise in the form of a cosy bobble hat, adorned with a badly crocheted ladybird.

@divinecomedyhq.bsky.social in Oxford were amazing! Songs were sung, drinks were served, and a lie down (in the aisle) was had. Thank you so much! 🤩

I've been on here for months, but I still get a little "flutter" when this icon appears. Most of the other stuff is less interesting.

Who knew these were a thing? My two favourite flavours of Fruit Pastilles in a bag! No more disappointment when I dig out a green one. In the top left, it says "share." Bahaha.

Patakas at Saint Laurence's Church in Upwey. They told us they're grumpy, but they know too many humorous anecdotes for that.

@jonboden.bsky.social I hope your gig tonight goes well, and I'm looking forward to seeing the Remnant Kings in August, but why are you keeping this one a secret? 👇 The one I went to last year was brilliant!

Teatime at the Minster in Wimborne @samsweeney.bsky.social and Grace Smith's first performance as a duo. I loved the 5/4 tune and Brian O'Neill (also my surname). Also first time to see Eleanor Dunsdon and Gregor Black, and Sophie Wright. A great gig!

Everyone should go and see the film Salt Path. It was excellent. I should probably read the book now. Ahem.

I went to see Martin Simpson at the Forest Arts Centre tonight. He was amazing! 🤩 (I took one really crap photo, so I'm not putting it on here). Here's a picture of some merch instead. I love how he's a big fan of birds.

I had a great time with the Highly Strung ensemble at Emery Down. A fun and challenging programme of music, and the perfect weather for it!

@gigspanner.bsky.social wow, the gigspanner trio were amazing! First time I've seen them, and I was well impressed! So lucky they played at a local venue. Thanks Bournemouth Folk Club. And one of 'em said I had a nice hat!
Go buy our merch. It's over there. We have actual gigspanners.
