Pleased to say I am now working with a group from Poole / Parkstone, along with Poole museum on a oral history project. We will be investigating the difference in working practices from when people started work in the 1940/50s and compare this with the present day.
This is a fantastic project which will enable local people to explore their past and discover how working practices have changed over the years. The group are excellent and it looks to keep me busy for awhile.

Ive found what could be a good base/venue for Waners. Its the Cactus Tea rooms on the Pavillion pier. It has upstairs and downstairs space for lots of artwork, its going to be bulldozered coz of the Pavillion development so absolute freedom for artistic interpretation. Most importantly it has a Bar aswell. I will upload photos shortly but I think it will be a great place as it is felt that the B sides will start at this venue. check it out
