H.O.M.N.N.

Which stands for Hay Open Mic Night News. Tim the Gardener (here calling himself Old Compost) has started writing a single sheet newsletter to publicise what goes on at Open Mic Nights at Kilvert's. He has a nice turn of phrase, and I'm sure he won't mind being quoted here:
"Old Compost at 9.10 playing to 1 adult male, 4 pretty women and the barman. He compensates by playing for the spirits present. They are less formal than the corporeal, they dance, wear outlandish clothes and pull faces."
The bar filled up somewhat after that, with live people rather than spirits - and hopefully will do again next Tuesday at 8.30pm. I have foolishly volunteered to do my Joyce Grenfell impression....
