This weekend is the beginning of the Canterbury Festival. We’ve got quite a lot of events coming up in the next week, including a concert with the remainder of the Buena Vista Social Club (which I’m really looking forward to, having seen Compay Segundo in concert before he died a few years ago) and Jaleo, Spanish flamenco dancing.

It also gives me a chance to upload a photo of the statue outside the Marlowe Theatre, where most of the events take place. Tenuous link, I know, but any excuse will do….
