The Sabbatical, By James R.A. Herriot. Part 5: Epilogue. If you were able to travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? During the second Covid-19 pandemic lockdown, James Herriot decided to collate various of the journeys he and his wife (Debbie) have made during their life together as a journal for the grandchildren. Reminiscing about their favourite places, James also includes suggestions for good books, his favourite music, as well as fine wines consumed with family and friends in the various locations.Travel with him from his beautiful home town of Berwick-upon-Tweed to Australia, New Zealand, America, Italy, France, Spain, Croatia, Turkey, and others, plus some closer to home – all 52 having their own story to tell. Sometimes humorous, sometimes sad, his observations are always thought-provoking. The Sabbatical will help you to reminisce about places you have visited – or possibly encourage you to visit them for yourself."The Sabbatical: A Year of Travel During the Pandemic" is Copyright ©2023 James R.A.

'The Bounce' by Lennox Campbell AKA Biggz Manifest‘The Bounce’ is a lively single providing listeners with a smooth, yet energetic feeling. It urges us to ‘feel the sound’, letting the groove move throughout the body, through our bones and highlights the impact music can have on us physically. This dance track certainly does want to make us get up and move to the rhythm of the beat Lennox Campbell AKA Manifest Productions is a Song Writer, Composer, Engineer and Composer from South East London. For the last 30 years he has been in the music industry, creating all kinds of genres, mainly a mix of Jazz, Soul, Reggae and Pop. His label, 'Ghetto Born But Raised' currently holds 18 tracks, all of which are available on Jeeni.His influences are what he grew up listening to from the 70's to the early 90's, harboring lyrics on topics that bother him and his friend/singer J Wills. This is mainly the voice of struggle, injustice and corruption. Their groove is a true fusion of life growing up in England.

Original Christmas Song by Brandon Look

I was inspired to write a song about how Christmas feels as a kid to how it feels now. Admittedly, with a lot happening in the last year, Christmas feels very strange for me this year. I tried to capture it in song form.I’d love to hear your feedback on this. Hopefully more original stuff to come in 2020.
