We meet on the last Monday of the month upstairs at the Old Nun's Head for an informal tunes (not songs) session.

It is a fun way of learning by ear to play folk dance tunes from England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, US, etc.

For more confident players, we take it turns to teach one new tune each session and most in the key of D or G major.

The sessions are FREE but please buy a drink at the bar.

If you can play an acoustic instrument a bit which works in those keys, come along and give it a try, and meet some like minded people too.

We are building up a repertoire, and we run through a few of the ones we already know each session.

Please visit the beginners session page on the Goose is Out website for more details or reply to this post.

- Vet recommendation

  I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

  In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

  There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
