I'm heading out soon for a bit of early evening #busking.
It's too nice to stay inside.
Might try to make a video. Haven't put much up on youtube lately.
I envy the people that happen to be where you set up. Enjoy, and have a nice evening. 😎
@realDDGlover I'm going to the historic part of the city, The Barbican. 403 years ago, the Pilgrim Fathers sailed The Mayflower from there!
@stueytheround My great-to-the-eighth grandfather was on that ship. Wish I could teleport to hear you play and see where it set sail from.
@WendyForbes
What was his name?
I might have something to show you!
@stueytheround William Bradford
@WendyForbes
Ok.
There's a handpainted sign with a list.
I'll see if I can spot him and send you a pic.
@stueytheround thank you!!!!
@WendyForbes
Here you go.
Raise a glass to William and Dorothy!
@stueytheround also I had to look up fustian maker. So was he in textiles or did he make speeches?
1.thick, durable twilled cloth with a short nap, usually dyed in dark colors.
"the coarse fustian of prison clothing"
2. pompous or pretentious speech or writing.
"a smoke screen of fustian and fantasy"
@WendyForbes Given he was from Yorkshire, a major centre of clothmaking, I'm going with the former! 🤣
@stueytheround That definitely makes more sense. Doesn’t seem like one could make a living back then just giving speeches.
