Spare room exchange
Looks like there might be room for a forum to let out spare rooms for short visits.
Or perhaps one like 'Axe-murdering OBs'

Anyone likely to have a camera with them today? Being some 300 miles west of the Guildhall, it is not possible for me to get there. I would love a pic or even a short video of the marching if someone could email it to me.
My son Jonathan (a new dep) tells me he will marching be in the front rank of the choir which will be bringinging up the rear of the procession from St Andrew's to the Giuildhall. (I understand that the choir will not be marching to the church as they will be there already.) It would be great to have a record of this.
It is already raining quite heavily in Cornwall, but I understand the rain may well hold off in London until the late afternoon.
Happy St Matthews Day to One and All!

If anyone can take a short video or does take pictures, do post them here or forward them on to me and I'll put them on the server.
