I just canny do it captain....

I tried, honest to God I have tried to blog everyday liked promised, but it has become a quick realisation that finding wi-fi access on the road is not always as easy as it looks. But at last we have settled into a pub in Trowbridge with some drinks and wifi access. Woop.


Liddi and I are having a wonderful first leg of the tour. Wednesday saw us start the day at BBC Leicester for a super fun interview with Jim Smallman and then onto Biddulph for a set at the wonderful Biddulph up in Arms. We knew we had struck gold the minute we arrived at Graham and Vanyas with whom we were staying. Not only do they have a truly wonderful home but they welcomed us like old friends which made us feel all gooey, plus we love Aggie the dog.

Aggie the dog

Breakfast, yummmmmmmmmmmeeeeeee.
What a view to wake up to!

Everyone at Biddulph Up in Arms was lovely huge thanks to Eric, Craig, John, Sylvia and the gang for having us, sorry about spilling an entire glass of coke all over the stage when I went on. Biddulph was great for ironing out the clitches before we head on for the long leg next week. Must NOT wear shows on stage and must sit down whenever possible. For some reason I am 4323489 times more nervous when I stand up.

Last night we had a super fun show in Cwmaman at the acoustic lounge, huge thanks to Huw and Graham for having us, fantastic sound system. Hopefully I'll be back for the festival in the autumn. We had to travel on last night and finally rested our heads at the lovely brooklands motel. Liddi did a sterling job on the driving front but is a bit tired now:





So we have landed in Trowbridge, had some italian food, chilling out for a couple of hours before sound check for the folk club tonight.

Ta-Da. I've blogged, super super proud of errrr me! yay.
Byyeeee


What is that jumper I'm wearing??!? Never again.
