Can you spare 30 minutes to browse the 25 tracks our @freshonthenetblog.bsky.social moderators picked from this week's high standard of submissions & vote for your favourite 5. Help decide which ten tracks by grassroots artists we have to research and write about on Sunday night.

I've been going through this week's @freshonthenetblog.bsky.social in-box and I don't think I'm breaking protocol by saying it's given me a bit of a [good] headache as there are so many cool tracks and I can't vote for them all. It underlines how much talent there is in our grassroots community.

I went out for my obligatory Christmas Morning stroll and stopped at the one shop I knew would be open. How can this pic of Lewisham High Street tell you it's Christmas Day? ......... That's right, it's the one day of the year when there are literally no buses! 😊

This was the car park at Waitrose by Beckenham Junction at 7.20am! I’m glad we didn’t go later! We stopped at Sainsbury’s Savacentre on the way home. All last Xmas food shopping done by 9am! Phew!! 🤣
