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

"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!

Up in the North East. Walked from Tynemouth to the fish Quay at North Shields. Some very fine modern statues celebrating local heritage.

SO pleased for Nottingham Playhouse winning Theatre Of The Year. It's a place fizzing with ideas & creativity. So good at involving the community too. Being involved in Coram Boy and Wasteland (pictured) has been a highlight of my later years! Congratulations @nottmplayhouse.bsky.social

This is a great read. I learnt so much about how the music industry works & the range of his collaborators is extraordinary; to cap it all there's a pleasingly accurate use of the preposition"from" on p204, so different to most plebs use of it. Buy it, read it - it's fab! @mikebatt.bsky.social
