You've probably never listened to Soft Folkus on Serenade Radio. Maybe try tuning in just for 5 minutes before 8.00pm for a stunning re-working of a Beatles song? You won't regret it. Go to www.serenade-radio.com or ask your smart speaker to "play Serenade Radio." #Beatles #folk #acoustic

My best mate since school days is Christopher Lillicrap. Some people haven't heard of him, others wonder whatever happened to him. Courtesy of a guitar he bought in Athens & a heart surgeon in Plymouth he's written a touching new song about ageing- and it's here!

"Why go to Rome when you can come to South Shields?" said the guide.
Just been to the extraordinary Arbeia Roman remains.
Why isn't this better known?
A really excellent visit and well explained on site.

I'm feeling out of sorts today
In fact I'm quite confuesli
It seems that Aldi no longer make
Their Very Berry Muesli.
My favourite cereal bar none
On the right hand aisle - not the midl
So what's a hungry boy to do?
I'll take my trade to Lidl!

Some real quality here, a song obscurely linked to Nick Drake & sounding really great even without @katestjohn.bsky.social who was on the original. Great work @mikebatt.bsky.social & that bloke from The Moody Blues.
If you give us a repost and tell all your mates you'll make two old men very happy! 🙂
Hooray! Our single's out! Justin Hayward and I celebrate RELEASE DAY today! "LIFE IN A NORTHERN TOWN" - originally by DREAM ACADEMY. Hope you like it! Check the video: youtube.com/watch?v=r9-q...
