I tend to learn as much as I forget

This issue's subject line "I tend to learn as much as I forget" is from Amy Winehouse's 2006 single Close To The Front


Hi there,

It's August and it's time for Fringe!!

Camden Fringe is about to begin!

I Miss Amy Winehouse has an updated poster:

I've had my tech rehearsal at the Etcetera Theatre (upstairs at The Oxford Arms, 265 Camden High Street), which is round the corner from The Hawley Arms - let's all go afterwards and try to catch a glimpse of the new Amy mural?

I'm really looking forward to performing the show in Camden... T-12 days!
