Peter Barlow's Cigarette experimental poetry event of legend, not attended for too many months due to the arrival of the little one, but there was a manifestation of David Annwn: utterly brilliant, sorry but the camera focused on the backs of heads, if that's your hair it didn't sign a release form.

Stoke Ceramics Biennial. Great work, plus nostalgia for a benign boom that probably never existed (as represented) and a sort of Farageist imaginary in Stoke's mix of flags, pawn shop and what gets called gentrification + art tourists, wilfully deranged youth stopped by police, ruin and new build.
