Short break up north in a very nice lodge at Ravenscar south of Whitby and enjoying about the best weather of the summer so far! A fantastic view, maybe only bettered by the one from the boat?

Hot off the computer press…here is the new image and venue details for the next notorious www.notoriouschoir.org choir concert at St Paul’s church. The last time we sang Mozart requiem St Paul’s in 2004 it was a sell out!

Well we have just got a nice new posh kite after our last one was last seen speeding off into the distance on Bamburgh beach on a weeks break in June. So without further ado we headed of top the top of the Lickey Hills to launch her off and see what she could do!

The Kite that is not the WIFE!

After all that we went for a well-earned pint in the Barnt green http://www.barntgreeninn.co.uk/ where they serve a very agreeable pint of Landlord.

All in all a good afternoons work I think!

I was covering the Rathayatra celebration in Birmingham’s Victoria square the weekend, lots of noise, colour and wall to wall people.
