I do not even know where to start to explain the last few days.
Its all coming together beautifully; the bike is ready, complete with wicker basket and a specially made guitar pannier that i was up till half two making last night. The old paper work seems to be in order, accounts are finished, tax returns complete, travel insurance, medication, spear tools, cycle helmet, ferry ticket, enough gadgets to satisfy inspector G himself. The blog's up and running, you're even reading it. The Film crew have filmed me up to some tricks and the dream is in full creation.
And on top of all that we have built a beautiful stage on my doorstep outside the studio in the car park across the river from Tescos in Lewes. The speakers are facing directly across to entertain the shoppers. The whole crew have transformed the place and musicians will come tomorrow and play for our pleasure. Kings Hifi are even running a Reggae Sound system further down the yard.
Yes, we are putting on the first Phoenix Fayre in this blooming artists community on the river bank in a quirky run down industrial estate where we live. In the evening our band, Dende, will be playing our last gig together for a while, at Zu Studios and celebrate into the night.
This Place alone is a wonderful manifestation of really living the dream and this is where i will say goodbye to this fantastic community and head on my merry way.
8 am on monday morning.... makes a change from going to work!
And then the Open Road.
Thank you so much to all who have supported me thus far and i would just like to say a big thank you to Jake at Eco Logic Cool in Brighton who, out of the blue felt inspired to offer to sponsor the trip by providing a fantastic solar kit to charge up the lights and my many gadgets.
So the trip will be solar powered as well!
I'm Just about ready,
The sun is shining,
and the next post will be fresh from the open road.
All the best
Ed
