Glorious day at the smallest church in Sussex with Sairie.

Here's some free music from Sairie : "Today, we released a single as a tribute to Carol Lawrence, a version of Françoise Hardy's Tous Les Garçons Et Les Filles a song that will forever be Carol's. It's free to download so please do and help celebrate a very special person." @sairie.bsky.social

I'm so proud to see my mother's wonderful designs in print and so grateful that the obituary that I wrote for her made it into the print edition of @theguardian.com yesterday. It breaks my heart that she's not here to see it.
