Well, I’ve a couple more things to do but this is, essentially, finished. It’s not perfect - bit bassy as not all of the reeds (especially the trebles) are tip-top, but it’s more in tune that I thought it’d be. But it looks beautiful 😍🎶

Remembering Lillian Bilocca, born on this day in 1929. The heart of 12 Silk Handkerchiefs. A mother, a fishwife, a woman who stood up and changed history. Her courage echoes on.

He’s suggested a couple of changes to the set list but otherwise he thinks I’ll be ok @Stage4Beverley @ertheatre

So i think it went pretty well, I’d maybe give myself 8.5/10 - points knocked off for fluffing lines when looking up and seeing NIGEL PLANER OFF OF THE YOUNG ONES watching me. He watched the whole show and said he’d put me on to his agent!

Remembering #JohnPrescott seen here supporting 12 Silk Handkerchiefs at Hull Minster in 2018
He helped push through vital safety laws after the 1968 Hull trawler disaster. 50 years later, he stood with us again in solidarity.
Your legacy of compassion and action lives on - RIP
