Also, last Saturday morning I travelled down the M5 and pulled off at Junction 20 in search of a man and his shed. In amongst fields filled with sheep and ponies I found what I was looking for...a little wooden shed and Jon who runs 'Songs from the Shed.'
I set up with my guitar on a step ladder and sang 4 songs which were filmed on a simple, hand-held camera with video function. Here's a link to all the 4 songs but I've embedded a couple below...



Hope to see you on the tour!
