My Hometown. I cross Newport Bridge on so many occasions. It's a wonderful cold blue sky day today & the river is high, you can't beat days like this to just wander around & listen to music in your headphones & Newport looks beautiful, it's got some great architecture and history.😊

I loved this song allready when I listened to it the first time back in 2022 ... Perhaps you shouldn't limit the download price to £0.99 ... I wanted to contribute more to the fundraising, but it wasn't possible ... So I sent out some bandcamp-gifts.
