I've been watching this wall for five weeks. I have to post this now because the ivy is seriously winning and soon there'll be no wall to see.

Please forgive the promotion, but after biting my tongue for a while I'm now able to say that the Swinghoppers have been booked for WOMAD this year. For those who go, it's Molly's Bar rather than a big stage but I never dreamt, when I took Son to WOMAD during all those formative years, that one day he'd perform there. Anyone fancy a WOMAD blipmeet? It's been done before.

This evening, a book launch for Nick Luxmoore's latest.
