It is typical I’ve had two requests for bookings in February in the last two days and I won’t be around! We are going to New Zealand and will be away all that month. Clare has also persuaded me to stay for the start of the cricket in March which I felt I had to agree to. Very excited and we start planning where we want to go. Perhaps I should look for a gig out there!

I am currently writing up the cycle ride for the village newsletter.

Good news from my brother Mike-his book of poems should be published next year. Great stuff!!!
