Breaking Glass Magazine – February 2022

Well, we made it through January – hope you’re all safe and well out there.

Apparently, February hosts an odd selection of national celebrations, including National Storytelling Week (29th Jan – 5th Feb), World Ukelele Day (5th), Random Acts of Kindness Day (17th) and International Polar Bear Day (27th).

It’s also Independent Venue Week in the UK, something I was looking forward to attending for various show at different venues, till Covid decided the time was perfect to hit my household. I’m still getting clear negative tests but don’t want to put anyone at risk in case I might be infectious, so sadly will be ducking out of this one. If you have the opportunity, this week always throws out the chance to catch some great artists in sometimes surprising places, so it’s definitely worth checking what’s on in your local area – let us know who you’re seeing…

Otherwise, if you have the urge to tell us a story about how you proffered a random act of kindness by playing tunes on your ukulele to a polar bear, you know where to find us (at home for now!) Details on the contact page if you want to get involved.

Take care x
