Ann Shrieves is a singer of mainly traditional Irish ballads. She is a natural storyteller, and a regular visitor to our singarounds.

Ian & Sarah are known to many around SE15. They are wonderful singers who came to our very first singaround in 2010. There singing is loved by many.

Hello people. 

If you're intending to come to this gig can we ask that you buy yourself a ticket from We Got Tickets in advance? please, please?

We sell most of our tickets this way and only ever sell a very small percentage on the door. Currently advance ticket sales have been really poor. So poor in fact that we may have to consider cancelling, which obviously we do not want to do. 

So please, if you're intending to come, the link is below.

If our advance ticket sales for this gig don't significantly increase by this Friday, we are reluctantly going to have to cancel.

If you are intending coming, please buy your tickets now!

Thomas is a one-off, an Irish traveller with a unique singing style handed down through  his family for generations, and a vast collection of songs he has gathered to prevent them from disappearing.

He is also a thoroughly lovely guy who has long campaigned for the rights of travellers, and whose singing is gaining increased international recognition.

There have been two TV documentaries made about him.

He also has a great sense of humour, and is very entertaining as well as being such a good singer!

This is a rare opportunity to see an Irish traveller singer with a unique singing style!

Advance tickets will come offline tomorrow afternoon to enable us to print off the ticket list and go to The Ivy House to set up, but tickets will also  be available on the door tomorrow night, Friday 31 May.

    • Hi fellow forum-ers,  I am in need of getting out of a (mutually) toxic relationship with my husband, but cannot afford to buy or rent anything half decent in the area. I would like for the children not having to change schools and friendship group, their training club etc to maintain some level of stability through the storm. I am looking for a house share with someone in the same position as me who is willing to share rent/bills/chores and... life! Or, maybe, a not so young person who needs help with cleaning, washing, shopping and cooking and has a couple of bedrooms to spare and can do with some extra cash. My children are 17, 14 and 10 well behaved and used to be respectful around people's houses (we're seasoned home exchangers). The eldest is in a fishing school (don't ask) outside London and only comes home for the weekend. The other 2 are into sports, so often training or in competitions during the week/weekend.  If you are interested or know someone who is, please DM me. I know it's a long shot, but I hope somewhere out there someone is able to help us. Also, if you're being through this and can offer advice, that is also welcomed. In case you're wondering, my husband is disabled and won't leave the house (and it seems unfair that we ask him to). 
    • Hi, My automatic nissan juke, much to my shock, having only done 50,000 miles needs a new gear box. Trying to decide to replace gear box or buy a second hand car - always thought Japanese cars were reliable and guess I have just been unlucky. Any advice greatly received - to buy a second hand car or replace gear box. If buying second hand would one suggest dealership or private garage ?? Thank you.
