COME yew along a'me down to Huntingdon Hall and yew enjoy a few songs and laughs," says Winston.

"It's sure to be a bootiful evening."

As you may have guessed, Winston Harrold is not from around here. He's a Norfolk farmer who knows a thing or two about diversifying. When he is not tending to his mixed arable East Anglian farm, he is on stage, under the spotlight, going by the name of Winston The Singing Farmer. On Tuesday, October 23, Winston brings his light-hearted, humorous show to Huntingdon Hall for one night only.

"It'll be great to back in the West Midlands and at a great venue," he said. "I'll make sure the wheels of the honey cart are well greased for the journey west."

The nearest Winston has come to Worcester is Tenbury Wells.

"I've had some good evenings there," he said.

Winston's unique music career began, of course, in a cow-shed when the cowmen taught him to play the mouth organ. Decades later he began performing in public, and before long, he began winning talent contests.

Today, Winston's informal shows are so popular that he often leaves his wife Jayne tending to the crops while he tours the UK performing his one-man show.

His family-friendly ditties based on everyday events and life in the country, as it is now and as it was not so long ago, are billed as fun for young and old alike. Winston said any resemblance he has to the Singing Postman Allan Smethurst, who became famous in 1966 with the novelty song Hev Yew Got A Loight, Boy, is quite intentional.

His first album is, in fact, a tribute to the Norfolk-raised singer, who passed away in 2000.
