It’s that time of the year - the wisteria in our back garden is in full bloom. It needs attention after the blossom leaves, but for now, it’s gorgeous! #wisteria #gardening #spring #blossom

WHAT A NIGHT! I have had so many amazing messages about @classicfm LIVE last night at the @royalalberthall We had 5 brilliant soloists… @brownleetenor kicked things off in style and filled the hall with his beautiful voice @rosiebennetguitar dazzled with her intimate guitar @alicesaraott_official talked to the audience about the fact that music was a shared experience and then mesmerised on the piano @aigul_akhmetshina_mezzo had a voice that was effortlessly inspiring & @nemanjaraduloff took the roof off the place with his unforgettable performance on the violin. We were also treated to the magic of @thecbso under @batonflipper and the audience were out of this world! You can listen to whole thing on Classic FM on Thursday at 7pm and you can watch it all on @skyarts soon too. Thanks to @skytv for their expertise and to @vikingcruises for their support again ⛴️ It is always a pleasure to share a stage with the wonderful @myleeneklass and - I tried to match her elegance with a new jacket from Mo at @signature_bespoke . He wasn’t able to be there this time but he poured his heart and expertise into making the perfect jacket for the occasion 🎯 Well done to the whole @classicfm team for putting on another top evening and to @mcrossick for the excellent 📸
