When I was a kid, and an avid reader, and found a book I liked, I would always go out and find more books by the same author. Or I'd ask for them as birthday presents. So the love yournew book is getting may well rub off

I probably don't have many local contacts on here, but anyway... this is the concert I'm giving in aid of the Milton Keynes Cancer Centre on 4th October at Stantonbury Theatre with the fabulous Charlie Lovell-Jones. The Filgrastim Philharmonia is named after a chemo drug. Details in the alt text.

My rapture outfit.

A kady in an impossibly dramatic and enormous yellow gown, all pleats and frills, yet very structured, almost architectural.

I downloaded a PDF of the score of a Haydn symphony recently (don't worry - out of copyright!). A message poppoed observing that this was a very long document and would I like a summary of it? I resisted the temptation.

This is just to say

We have eaten
the plums
that were on
your tree

and which
you were probably
hoping
to live to eat yourself

Forgive us
they were delicious
so sweet
and you are now so cold

The Labour response to Farage policy of leaving the Refugee & Humam Rights Convention should not be “he won’t deliver”.

It should be “this is not morally right” (not “British values” even).

Voters want to see authentic consistent leadership. Not debate the workability of cruelty.
