I’ve let myself down there…

Disappointed Reform are now second in my ward, but delighted they are so far behind the winner who got over 2.4x more votes. Only 37% combined right-wing vote. Total Tory collapse. Green remain ahead of Labour

Today was made good by Pulp putting out a new song and also I saw a chiffchaff

I’m celebrating World Theatre Day at Chelmsford Theatre for the second of my four visits across the next month or so

Slightly baffled how Chelmsford is the best place to live in the east of England yet not the best place to live in the country, a title taken by Saffron Walden which is 30 miles away in the same county

Excited about this. Adwaith and Hotwax are great additions

‘Journalists’: “It’s going to be 17 degrees this week, find somewhere that sounds hot for a ‘hotter than’ headline. Corfu? I don’t care their March average is only 13. Run it!”

BBC’s Radio 2 in the Park 2025 is in Chelmsford. Bookmark this

My first reaction on seeing Mercury Rev are playing Chinnery’s in Southend was that it’ll be a covers band. Which, in retrospect, would be very niche

You wait years and years for some genuinely iconic alternative artists to play in Essex and then two get announced on consecutive nights

📢 We’ve announced the 2025 #TheatresAtRisk Register which features 43 theatres, 5 additions, one removed. 🎭 Every theatre on the list could be revived for use by their communities with the right support. Find out more www.theatrestrust.org.uk/latest/news/...
