El Stonehenge antifascista

Monument to the men and women shot in Campo da Rata, A Coruña during the Civil War. The site just outside the Galician city was used to kill hundreds of leftists between 1936-37. Inaugurated in 2001. A poem by Garcia Lorca is carved into the granite, stained in places in red. 📷Chencho Mendoza Instg

Last for tonight. Atmospheric Frank Meadow Sutcliffe photograph of Pier Road in Whitby. The area was steeped in the town’s maritime history and whilst the road now has more of a seaside feel, it is not hard to imagine what it would have been like in earlier times.

Switch this on now. Or catch up with it later. I shall be listening on the studio system as soon as I’m home. It’s amazing, even through my Mum’s dodgy radio.

She’s 85 and still plays like a demon. I’ve been lucky enough to see Martha Argerich play Ravel, Chopin, Schumann and Prokofiev and tonight I shall see her play Beethoven’s Piano Concerto no. 2 at the @BBCProms. Very excited.

We had fun. David Byrne’s show is one of the truly great gigs - especially considering it’s been on the road for about a year. Perfect meeting of conceptions and execution, and sounded gorgeous.

NEWS: Doncaster Dome (FaulknerBrowns, 1987-89) has reopened to the public following a 2 year, £15 million project to refurbish the pools, flumes, changing area, mechanical heating and water filter system. The Postmodern leisure centre was Grade II listed in 2023 after an application by C20 Society.
