Gallivanting around Greater London over this bank holiday weekend (starting with a Salif Keita concert at The Roundhouse on Thursday night) has meant little blogging opportunity. More tomorrow, but in the meantime any Commonwealth citizens may be interested in the 2007 Commonwealth Short Story Competition. 1st Prize is £2,000, but you will have to make it snappy as the deadline is 15 May 2007.
