I’m playing piano at the wonderful Trippets in Sheffield tonight with my ace comrade Hannah Brady on saxophones/clarinet. Come and see us and say hello! We’re playing from 7.30pm, it’s free entry, and there's utterly splendid food and drinks & nice relaxed welcoming vibes all round.

Well here’s another hero - the Sheffield Tribune, one of the Mill stable of independent news sites, had the courage to publish an important story despite legal threats..
