HOT OFF THE PRESS…NEWSFLASH… Sat 13th July… Gary O’Dea supporting Martin Stephenson @ Solihull Arts Complex, Library Sq, Touchwood, Homer Rd, Solihull, B91 3RG  http://www.solihullartscomplex.co.uk/Arts/Martin-Stephenson–Solo-Tour/3820 Tickets £10 – doors 7:30pm (Gary on stage @ 8pm). Martin Stephenson & Gary O’Dea…the Laverne & Shirley of Rock n Roll 😉 don’t miss. Martin – fresh from his triumphant storming of the Glastonbury Festival and O’Dea fresh from the market 🙂 lol…

RIP to Jimmy Reid the Clydeside Trade Union activists who died this week. He was an inspiring orator (something very much lacking in the last couple of decades via politics) – this speech delivered on his inauguration as rector of Glasgow University in 1972 was compared to the Gettysburg address… it has lost little of its relevance!    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/still-irresistible-a-workingclass-heros-finest-speech-2051285.html

Made in Brum 🙂 and a Pleasure (pun intended) http://handinglove.co.uk/socks-and-chocs-for-the-homeless-the-busking-bobby/
