Just thought I'd mention that the other day a really cool thing happened. I was on Twitter (as usual) and a guy called Jamie Boelhower (@jdog90) got in touch and asked if I'd talk to a couple of classes of 10th graders (15 - 16 years olds) about Georgia Wonder. He's a teacher from Nebraska USA, and I'm currently in Portsmouth UK. Amazing to find out where people are listening to your music.
Within a few days we'd arranged to do a video question and answer session with two of his classes, so there I was answering questions to a bunch of students in a classroom halfway around the world, from the comfort of my front room. It was kind of nerve-wracking at first, but we all soon got the hang of it - Jamie introduced me (Julian) and started the ball rolling, and as things progressed people were coming up to the camera with their questions and waving - it was really fun and was just like being there.
It's amazing what can happen if you simply ask, and Twitter is the best asking tool ever made.
Here's the school:

and here's the magazine they wrote up, all about our session:

So if you're reading this Centura, hello and thanks for having me!
