Happy Birthday to legendary DJ Don Letts, born on this day in 1956.

‘Bar Italia’, the closing track on 'Different Class', was named after the long-standing cafe in Soho @TheBaristas:
"And now it's morning there's only one place we can go.
It's around the corner in Soho where other broken people go. Let's go."

It was great to see Wrexham so busy - and sounding wonderful yesterday! Did you join in with the Big Sing? https://t.co/rR6jwPc0Ko
This is amazing - Wrexham’s #SingingStreets has brought thousands to sing with choirs across town. People lazily resort to criticising MPs, this is outstanding community work from Ian Lucas 👏👏
This really is @wrexham at its finest - hundreds of people joining together for a rendition of Calon Lân at today's Singing Streets choir festival
