Good evening to @PetrocTrelawny and @BBCRadio3 #InTune listeners. The evening’s brightening up, both weatherwise and musically, and kora and guitar are a magical combination.

We mark the recent death of sometime #Hull resident, poet Douglas Dunn, with this 1972 picture of his house 4 Terry St, with the car (his?) parked outside, proving what he says in his poem 'Removal from Terry Street': "There is no grass in Terry Street." @PLSoc @hull_libraries

After 3 busy days, and in view of the weather, my husband took a rain check and stayed at home with a book, but I really enjoyed this morning’s Coffee Concert in Warwick - stunning performances and excellent acoustics.
