Being visually impaired you start to forget that other people can see AKA you quit caring that they can see. On stage at Edgeworth Folk Club last night. Capacity crowd. All I could see was the bass & the pretty roof. Great gig. Good time for a bass selfie?! #AppleSellers
Taking a step away from cider production due to “dodgy eyes”. Today picked up the double bass & gave it my best - 4 gig in 1 day mini folk tour as part of @lakesmusic playing with The Apple Selllers (see the link?!). #blindbassist

A 6am departure for @RammyApple this morning on an impromptu trip to Herefordshire for MORE apples. Even though his alarm woke me at 5.15am, I can forgive him as it will be his happiest day.
[pictured - the 125kg from a week ago that are definitely not going to be enough]
Got me some fine (super rare) Lancashire apples today! Then went to the sea to give them a little day out. Before they then face the final pressing…🍏😳
Huge thanks and admiration to Philip Rainford and John Slocket, for their incredible catalogue of rare and northern fruit 🙏
I love walking with the kids…but today’s walk, just @RammyApple and I, ending in one of THE great pubs (the Poachers in Bollington) will take some beating.
@aine_mallon …nope! However, Simpson Cutting and Kerr - Dark Honey. Just stumbled into it, absolutely love it - and it reminded me of your voice. Absolutely nothing to do with what you asked for though!!
Weather looks good, plenty of jobs to crack on with, all we need now is: YOU!
#OrchardSunday
Come join us tomorrow 1.30-4 and help get us ready for the harvest ahead
