Of course this blog, and the Facebook group 'It all happens in Colchester', are great places to find out what's going on. But Mrs. Blogger is a bit of an old fashioned girl, and every week she reads the Essex County Standard from cover to cover. So I have noticed the increasingly good coverage of our Arts scene here in Colchester, now given a lovely multi-page section every week. It seemed to be written entirely by the obviously hard-working Neil D'arcy Jones, but now I'm pleased to see contributions from Liz Leatherdale of Colchester Classics, and local playwright Paul T Davies. He writes about Wonderful Wednesdays at the Arts Centre - please catch one this year!
So many songs about newspapers, but this one is a bit more tangental, 'Charlie the Newsmonger' by folk duo 'Megson', who by coincidence play the Arts Centre next Monday. See you there!

Thank you for your kind comments. If you pop to https://www.facebook.com/ColchesterClassics/ you'll see in addition to my day job of promoting Classical Music via CD sales as Colchester Classics I also offer Classical Music concert previews and occasional concert reviews. 3 years ago I was fortunate to be in the right place at the right time and offered a Classical Music column starting with the Daily Colchester Gazette. Opportunities for new columns were developed in Essex Life and the e-magazine Colchester 101 and last but not least a weekly column in the Essex County Standard.
ReplyDeleteAlong the way, I may have encouraged more features in the above publications
Do pop to see me at The Beth Chatto Gardens Christmas Fayre this weekend
Thanks again Ian
All the best
