Diary Of A Busker Day 2594 Thursday September 4th 2025 Winchester.   Another day, another dollar. A damn sight more than that, I hope!

Diary Of A Busker Day 2588 Sunday August 10th 2025 Winchester.   Rockin’ Rob’s at his usual Buttercross spot but my usual spot in The Square is free. It’s another hot day but the spot where I play is always in the shade although, because of the proximity to the foliage in the cathedral grounds, there’s always stuff flying about… Read more →
