Looks like you had a splendid Sunday @steevc and I envy you the nice local to hop down to, sadly we just don't have that same sort of 'pub life' here. Our pubs/bars tend to be so much more just dark drinks whilst in England I always find the publife so much more 'community centre' Last time I was living outside of Canterbury we had 3 pubs in our tiny village and I went to one each morning for a coffee by the fire and patted various dogs that came in and out with locals...gosh I miss it. I live so much more an insular life when I'm in New England then when I'm lucky enough to be in OLD.
Did you get a recording of your playing?
I love that little thatched cottage, is it yours? It's darling.

Unfortunately many pubs here are shutting down as less people use them and costs go up. COVID has not helped that situation. There used to be a lot more in our village, but just 3 left now. Live music can be a lifeline for them. Some rely on serving food. The one we used to meet in decided that they wanted to do more food and so chucked us out.

The could be video of the open mic I did last night.

That's not our house. There are villages around here that are very picturesque with lots of thatch. I know from experience that it is expensive to maintain.
