This week, The Tribune had some really heartening news.

On Thursday, they announced the shortlist for the British Journalism Awards in December in London.

In the local news category, not one, but two of the journalists nominated are working for our tiny team right here in Sheffield!
The tide is turning
Five years ago, we set out to change local journalism. It looks like it’s starting to pay off

Just sent a bunch of money to the musicians for sales of the Anthony Braxton QUARTET (ENGLAND) 1985 live set. It's one of the best sets of music you'll ever hear, and you really should buy one.
