Tunbridge Wells

Just taking a break from watching England as Rugby team - well they seemed to be so for about 20% of the time anyway - to mention our excellent night on Friday in Tunbridge Wells.
Singing as part of the Music at King Charles series, we had a full church of Tunbridge Wellsians, and none seemed disgusted...

We gave them a glimpse of our Best of British programme... which we will take to Belgium and Germany in the coming months (altho' we spoke and sang in English!).
At one of the homes of Kent CCC, there were many enthusiastic faces as we mentioned cricket and sang some songs from the album, ably accompanied as ever, by Chris Hatt.

Thanks to our old friend, Rupert Preston-Bell and his family, and to their collaborators The Tunbridge Wells International Festival for making this evening, and so many others, a success.

But Georgia on My Mind still... for the next 40 minutes...

Cricket online interview

Songs of Cricket interview on cricketworld.com

Listen all about it - you have to search quite hard on the site to get to the above, but hoping some will find it!

Looking forward to more sales at one of the homes of Kent CCC tonight... Tunbridge Wells.

Two Surprises

Called to Oxford on Saturday for a quickie.... in the delightful surroundings of Quod Brasserie and Bar, we sang for a famous friend of ours - offspring of whom had just graduated...
Young and old, everyone was very happy to have their meal interrupted by us!
...and when were we asked about this?
Well, obviously, 5pm on the day itself...
We were lucky the weather was a bit changeable, otherwise we all might have been out on a fine summer Saturday evening... but as it was we were sheltering from the rain, and thus able to answer our phones and get to a different city.
...and all home late on the same day... well, the latest by 12.25am... cool!

...and whilst walking along the road to the restaurant, we bumped into someone else who was there in the city (for a friend's wedding), Rupert Preston-Bell and his wife Caroline... what a ridiculous serendipity that was! We will be performing at King Charles the Martyr, Tunbridge Wells for them on September 16th this year... Hope the weather stays nice for that one...
