Diary Of A Busker Day 484 Friday December 27th 2013 Winchester (opposite Vodafone, Time: 3:10-4:34pm). After The Third Man, an old lady says – ‘And you’re not using synthesizers!

Diary Of A Busker Day 482
Diary Of A Busker Day 482 Tuesday December 3rd 2013 Winchester (Opposite Vodafone, Time: 1:50-3:30pm). I’m in a better frame of mind than usual of late. I’m not sure why, though.

Diary Of A Busker Day 470
Diary Of A Busker Day 470 Saturday November 9th 2013 Winchester (Opposite Vodafone, Time: 2:18-4:20pm). A cold day but at least there’s hardly any wind: the difference between bearable and agonising.
