Sadly , post lockdown - live shows are becoming less and less viable for so many performers - I have many friends , critically revered and fabulous , who are seeing huge drops in their ability to sell - the mainstream dominates - the arenas lap up money and numbers
We always try to get Nine Lessons shows beyond London - it is never profitable but we hope it makes it accessible for others - This year is CARDIFF - but no one seems to want to come - so we will pull it next week if we see that it is going to lose us too much money

When two or three ND grown men get to authentically chat.
Conversations and connections tumble out with ease.
Smashing to catch up with this titan of LITERATURE!
Had such a lovely time at the Cheltenham Literature Festival last weekend. Nice hang with @robinince.bsky.social & @gavcross.bsky.social, lovely event for THE MAGIC IN YOU, signed lots of books, met lots of cool kids, had free coffee and cake. WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE?

3) WELL HALL BOGGART
"Well Hall, near Clitheroe, had a boggart of a sociable disposition, who used to keep an old woman company by the fireside on long winter nights. Although friendly towards the old woman, he is claimed to have once chained a man to the wall in his temper."

I’m not that bothered by flags and tha’ but I know people are.
I am bothered a bit by the lion being the national symbol.
I like Lions.
But they are from Africa.
I like Africa too.
