Recommended Posts

Join us on Sunday 18th October at 10.30am and hear Huw Edwards share with you his thoughts in a talk that combines themes including early Nonconformist congregations in London, some 18th century London history and also some stuff on the BBC and the way the media covers religion.


Tickets are ?15 which includes a signed paperback copy of City Mission or ?8.00 entry ticket. (plus booking fee).


The story of the Welsh in London spans a thousand years and in many ways is still largely untold. Broadcaster and journalist Huw Edwards says it is impossible to understand the history of the Welsh in London without appreciating the central place of organised religion. In City Mission, he traces an intriguing story of London?s Welsh chapels which spans several centuries. But his book is far more than a story of chapels and churches. It sheds light on the story of one of London?s first ethnic minorities ? the Welsh.


Tickets can be booked online: http://dulwichliteraryfestival.co.uk/ via email: [email protected], via telephone: 020 8670 1920 or pop into Dulwich Books on Croxted Road SE21 8SW

    • Gosh, a mere 61 years since "It's my party".  I didn't know at the time that it was QJ's first production.  I remember it like last week and probably have him to thank, for beating Spector to it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_My_Party  
    • Quincy Jones Born March 14, 1933, Chicago, Illinois, U.S. Died November 3, 2024 (aged 91), Los Angeles, California, U.S. Simply a musical legend of his time who's contribution to RnB, Soul and jazz music should never be under estimated.  Record producer, songwriter, composer, arranger, and film and television producer. He worked with many of the soul and jazz legends himself, and he has a back catalogue of material I urge you to listen to and enjoy. He will be sadly missed.         
    • Used Leon for the first time today as our usual electrician was out of London. neighbour gave us his details as we lost all power in the lower part of our house. Fortunately we had a separate circuit for the first floor so could boil up a kettle. Leon when rang advised he could come this afternoon, turned up and checked every thing and got power back on and to call him back if we had any more problems. Reasonable rate considering it was an emergency call out. Nice chap, very helpful, would recommend.
    • Hubby went in to enquire re washing a double duvet - cost quoted £20.  He paid £25 a few weeks ago of another duvet in a laundrette opposite Peckham Bus Garage.
