The London Years and other news

jah 30 london yearsThanks to P.J. Clerkin for digging out this photo from Theberton St. 1979. There’s a story behind the building of that wishing well and you can hear all about it at The Town Hall Studio Theatre on Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd May, it looks like its going to sell out like the others in the memoir series so better book rapid if you want to go. The Caledonia Highly Strung Orchestra had a beautiful gig and a wonderful time in Napoli, thanks to Davide Mastropaulo and everyone involved at Porto Petraio, we hope to have a video clip from the show where we premiered a new song “Highly Strung in Napoli” I had a crazy week on returning performing at four “Kitchen Sessions” with Sarah Clancy and Elaine Feeney as part of the Cuirt International Festival of Literature, I also performed at the opening which was great fun. Friday night it was “Small Halls and Potholes” in the new Village Theatre Carrabane near Loughrea, it was perfect.
