On Saturday the 14th  of June I'll be presenting The Weekend Edition on Monocle 24 as usual, but there will also be around 2000 other people in and out of Midori House during the course of the weekend. That is because it is the Monocle Country Fayre, http://monocle.com/ Monocle's own take on an old English tradition. It will feature Monocle's favourite nations, retailers and delicacies, a petting zoo, summery aperitifs, the Monocle tombola, games and a host of guest musical performers. I'll be on air most of the time, popping out to interview people or inviting them in to the studio to describe what is going on. We'll have our usual new music hour between 11 and 12, playing the latest additions to the playlist and around 1400 I'll be talking to Sophie Hall, the Director of the Flowers Gallery on Cork street about the Artists Of The Day exhibition and one of the featured artists, Pru Kemball. http://www.flowersgallery.com/exhibitions/flowers/2013/artist-of-the-day/#.Ubsar_n6Uxg
On Sunday the 15th of June the Country Fayre continues, and The Weekend Edition will vary slightly in format. Instead of being on air with Gwenan Edwards from 1600-1800, instead I will be in the studio from 1000-1200 and then again from 1400-1500, bringing all the flavour of the Fayre to those who can't physically get there. I hope you can join us then.
