Mod Musical Extravaganza in Tidworth

Fifty years after the fact, a Mod festival in Tidworth, Wiltshire. Sponsored by the Kiwi Throttlers Scooter Club. To benefit the Teenage Cancer Trust. Interesting that a particular fashion and style of music can survive on and on this way. My take on it is that it's an attractive way to hide from an increasingly unpleasant world.

The Vicars' Close, Wells, Somerset

Celebrations for the oldest continuously inhabited street in Europe. A graceful and quiet place. My character in To Save the Realm walks up and down this street to calm himself after having a traumatic experience the night before.

From the Wells Journal

Here is a gorgeous picture of the street.

I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better

The great Gene Clark singing "I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better" with The Byrds. Roger McGuinn is such a weirdo. So are the dancers!
