A day in the English Countryside

Hello again everyone!It's been a while :-)Since the first lockdown, we've been rather busy with various collaborations and preparing for our Digital Tour, which we are now half way through!First was The Library Live, a programme released to celebrate the launch of our new album, The Library vol. 3. Next was Heiwa, a Japanese-inspired programme. (Jules's last blog discussed the Heiwa programme.) The final two concerts are called Out of Darkness and Christmas with the King's Singers. The latter is self-explanatory but Out of Darkness looks at all the musical beauty that can arise from times of difficulty. If you'd like to come to any of the concerts, they are available until the end of the year and you can get tickets here. We hope to see you there...Sadly, very soon we in England are going back into lockdown! So I decided to spend today with my boyfriend in the countryside enjoying being out and about in the mud (it's been raining very hard the last few days!). We went for a walk around the village of Edge Hill, the site of an English Civil War battle. The view of the Warwickshire Cotswolds was amazing! And then we had lunch in one of our favourite pubs. We decided to indulge with three courses: a massive roast, followed by a cheese board and then the pub's famous gluten-free sticky toffee pudding!I'm rather full now and so won't be eating dinner :-SUntil the next time, and keep safe,EddieInstagram: @edwardbutton1
