Hellooo! Thanks for a lovely gig in Whitby!
Seems like I’m just posting about lost things at the moment-but if anyone found a bracelet made of tiny sliver elephants in/around either the Met or the Spa, please may I have it back? It was a birthday present from Dad last year.

Please share!

Last gig of this run before @jenniferballadss runs off to New Zealand!
Come on Hunmanby, all sold out! The last time I was here I was eleven and left in an ambulance; I wonder how this evening’s going to go?
(It’s officially SOLD OUT but there has been one cancellation, so have a go if you like!)

Hello folkies, friends, musical adventurers, and people that want to give me a gig!
Right. I’m here. What’s going on? Is it nice? Can I eat it, snog it, or dance on or about its grave?
