@FlatfootJohnny It’s everything.

It doesn't look like much. But this is Jupiter and 5 of its moons taken from my back garden just now... me and my boy.

@artfletch Amazing. It's so informative to visualise the full extent of what lies underground. Did you climb down into the ice chamber for those shots looking backwards?

Fabulous analogue end to @courtaulddigi for 2022 with @RobinTheFog performing a piece made in collaboration with volunteers from sounds sampled from the Conway Library. Since 2017 1,840 amazing volunteers have donated over 44 thousand hours to the project. @TheCourtauld

@FlatfootJohnny I bought an English just after I’d left school, then exchanged it for an Anglo because I started playing for a Morris side and it was an easy switch from the melodeon. But I wish I’d stuck with the English…

I have to have a concertina! I just do! But i need to save up as im skint. Any advice for decent lower priced models would be great.... also what type Anglo or English?

@artfletch Hi David. I'd like to ask a question about this model. Please can you follow me, then I can send you a message? Thanks, Tom
