Hector Gilchrist with Carol Anderson: The Goose Is Out! Thursday 11 January, The Ivy House, 40 Stuart Road, SE15 3BE.*** 7pm *** Floorspots welcome, ?7 on the door.


An established performer on the folk scene, Hector Gilchrist has appeared throughout the UK, Ireland and beyond. Born in Ayrshire, he has been involved in folk music since the 60s.


His repertoire contains songs traditional and contemporary, sung in a lyrical style usually with uncomplicated guitar accompaniment.


He is widely acknowledged as one of the finest interpreters of the songs of Robert Burns and will be performing several of these during the evening. This gig is close enough to Burns Night for us to have an excuse to have a Scottish/Burns theme. It would be great if floorsingers could sing Scottish ot Scotland-related songs- but not compulsory, of course. :)


Hector is joined by fiddler and singer Carol Anderson who delighted a large audience back in October with her dazzling Scottish tunes and songs.

      I am looking for a mobile mechanic to help me either take out my car battery or connect a trickle charger.  Does anyone have any contacts for this.   Thanks

      Oh Rachel....

      We need to build houses for social rent. Not 'affordable housing' (which is a euphemism for housing that is completely unaffordable to most) - actual council housing.  Taxes do need to go up. We have to stabilise public services and start paying down our national debt to break free of the sway bond markets have over UK governments freedom to act. We are probably all going to have to work longer too. The original UK state pension was there to help those who often had been in physically demanding manual or labouring jobs. The retirement age was set above average life expectancy at the time; It was not designed for a population of mainly white collar workers people to spend one-quarter, to one-third of their adult life in retirement. I know that may sound harsh, and I certainly don't want to work forever, but the fact is that we have an aging population and a diminishing tax base, and no politician who is willing to make fundamental reforms. Mostly we need to grow, and that means at some point, addressing our relationship with the world's largest trading block right on our doorstep. The damage done by Brexit has been crazy. The fact that it's chief architect has managed to come up smelling of roses and may potentially be our next PM is just mind blowing to me.

      Mice will eat *anything*! That shop had a couple of very low food hygiene ratings over the years (and it was closed for "refurbishment" for a while which was obviously the first attempt to deal with the pest problem) so I'm not surprised by that article. You'd hope that pest control would have dealt with the majority of them...

      Makes me wonder where the mice will have gone since it closed down.
