Strumming Despite The Tube Strikes…

Hello

There are plenty of alternative ways to navigate London. Walking, Boris Bikes & Buses are just 3.

I’ll be there, with my iPad from 6-11pm(ish) as usual. Come & join me for a strum if you fancy.

If you want to make it official, you can join the faceboook event here.

See you there!

Know any more ukulele playing friends in London? Loads of people aren’t on the email list. For things like this, it’s handy, the news on email could save you an inconvenience of going to the wrong venue. Please make sure everyone you know is signed up so the news comes straight to yours and their inbox rather than in a social post that you might miss. Perhaps you could forward this email on to let your ukulele jamming friends know about this email list so that they can also join and know straight away if there are important updates like this in the future? Many thanks and look forward to strumming with you.

Those who are eagle eyed would have already seen this on FB or twitter, so sorry for any repetition. Look forward to strumming with you!

Fancy coming to play outdoors? If you want to join the facebook event, that’s here.

The last couple of times this has happened, we sat just off the Easternmost path, roughly in line with the end of Cambridge Gate.

If the description doesn’t work for you, here’s some google maps coordinates:

See you there?

New Ukulele Wednesdays Song Tutorials…

by in Songs and tagged , , , , , , | Leave a comment

Hey there,

Due to popular demand, I’ve started working my way through the Wednesdays book (and adding more songs that I like, along the way) and putting up tutorials on my YouTube site. If there’s any songs you’d like me to add, drop me a line on lorraine (at) learntouke (dot) co (dot) uk.

Strum with you soon!

Lorraine.

Ukulele Wednesdays is 8!

Wish the old girl a good one!

Hello,

My my, how time flies when you’re having fun. Who would have thought that my addiction to replace smoking would last this long, let alone the night itself! As you know, there are 3 venues, at the same time, as we are now back at the Albany!

The Albany has now been refurbished, and it’s lovely in the basement. Plenty of booths and spaces for people to sit. Have you seen the pictures on twitter/facebook? The room is looking nice and it will be great to have a bit of room. So come along, grab some dinner with me from 6:30pm, and the strumming will start from 7:30pm. See you tomorrow?

PS… please do check back here, as there will be some new songs published tomorrow!
