  7. They told Barry not to wear glasses in the photo.

  8. Hospital canteens are peculiarly overlooked by the Michelin Guide.

    Shipbuilding. It’s just a rumour that was spread around town…

    Will accept Elvis Costello, Robert Wyatt, Suede, The Unthanks, June Tabor or whoever. Lots of lovely versions of a brilliant, powerful song.
