The world of work is changing but sometimes I miss the old days
After I lost my job in May, I started jobhunting. After a few weeks of receiving polite rejections, I discussed my situation with a recruiter who told me the world of work has changed.
The world of work has changed but so has the world and society. That’s why I was delighted to hear that my good friend Tony St Ledger and his band Trouble Pilgrims have released a single called “The Old Days” which is now available on the brilliantly named record label Forever In Financial Arrears.
“The Old Days is a retro look at the past when the food tasted better, the water we swam in had no plastic! We loved to work hard and looked forward to payday on Friday when money and the weekend really meant something special”, explains Tony who is now…
“People should consider returning to fundamental values because the best things in life are free” says Tony St. Ledger. As a creative director working with global international brands, he is a master communicator. He is also the guitarist with Dublin band Trouble Pilgrims. His natural aptitude for writing and imaginary has the ability to transform. Tony believes that we should aim to apply vision, attention to detail and awareness in dreaming our own creative destinies. Within a vacuum lockdown, he has written a song called I Like The Old Days but songwriting and music are just one of many dimensions to Tony. He is a someone who recommends retro-values like getting back to real things. www.thetroublepilgrims.com Facebook http://www.facebook.com/TheTroublePilgrims
You can’t run away from trouble, there ain’t no place that far.

Trouble Pilgrims formed in 2013 with the intention of continuing the legacy of The Radiators from space while having a main focus on recording and performing brand new material. To date they have released two singles, The double A side debut of Animal Gang Blues c/w Who Do You Love? followed in 2015 by Instant Polaroid [The Man On The Bridge] On the live front the band have developed a reputation for delivering tight and exciting live shows. Some high profile special guest appearances [The Boomtown Rats, The Undertones] have cemented their reputation and broadened their appeal. The band were invited to play at the prestigious Kilkenny Roots Festival in 2015 and such was the response to three appearances over that weekend they have returned to the festival in 16 and 17 which were equally successful. The band recorded their debut album over the summer of 2017 and are delighted to announce Dark Shadows And Rust will be available Worldwide on Chiswick Records via Ace from 27th October 2017

The Body of Christ. Heaven and earth, black and white, life and death, truth and lie… love this shot of a fabulous sculpture of Christ on the cross at Our Lady of Dolours Church, Botanic Road created by my dearly departed neighbour and friend Peter Grantin 1969. Blue tits now nest in the body of Christ and if you look closely you can see where a Starling had poked it’s head in to get at the chicks and got stuck and died.
