Diary Of A Busker ~ Day 32
Diary Of A Busker Day 32 Thursday January 27th Winchester High Street (opposite WH Smiths, Time: 1 – 2:30pm). It really is getting cold! – the fingers get red, the hands turn purple, the breaks are becoming longer, the playing time is becoming shorter. It’s an exponential growth curve! During a break, a very old lady is ambling towards me… Read more →

Diary Of A Busker Day 24 Monday January 10th Winchester High Street (opposite Phase Eight, Time: 12:35 – 2:50pm). A cold, windy (making it even colder – VERY colder!) and depressing day. I took just over £14 for 2 1/2 hours of non-stop playing. Nothing to report apart from getting three £2 coins and a man who said “Everytime I… Read more →
