This Machine Kills Wasps / Walthamstow Wassail 2023
Howdy newsletter subscribers! I hope you all enjoyed the first New Moon of 2023.
What else has happened? I had a lovely sauna session at the Porchester Spa in Bayswater, and there was an attempted neo-fascist coup in Brazil.
These things were not related.

Brighton’s newest alternative comedy, music, and musical comedy night
Free on 2nd February? Come along to This Machine Kills Wasps, a new, alternative music /comedy / musical comedy night in central Brighton.
I am super excited but also terrified, like every promoter ever. What if no one turns up? What it’s literally just me, and the acts, and tumbleweeds?
And the answer, of course, is even then it’ll be fine. I’ll just charge the tumbleweeds a fiver each.
I’ve set up a website where you can read all about it. Thanks to Nadine Bailey for the fab artwork.
Walthamstow Wassail 2023
In the depths of winter, we make folk traditions to remind us that the ground will not be frozen forever, and that spring and good times will come around again.
Wassailing is part of that, and I returned to Walthamstow to remind myself of the cyclical nature of time. And also to sing at some bees.
